From fundraising events to visiting families in their homes, the Burrows car has become an invaluable part of the Bluebell team.
A Burrows spokesperson said: “For another year we’re delighted to continue the strong relationship and support to a well-loved and valued local charity by loaning a car for another year.
“With the dedication and support from Bluebell Wood they have made a difference to local families and we are delighted to know that we have supported them along the way.”

Corporate fundraising manager Rachael Dawes said: “To lease a similar car would have cost us around £4,000 so because of Burrows’ generosity we’re able to direct more vital funds towards helping local families when they need it the most.”
