In December Rob Fryer manager of the Meridian Shopping Centre gave £570 raised by donations to Street Piano players on the mall from July to October last year, to World Bicycle Relief (Buffalo Bicycles) - helping international children and communities who have to travel long distances for their education and work.
These funds were eligable for Gift Aid and match funding. This is on top of the £900 donation at the end of 2017 which again with Gift Aid and match funding totaled £2,940. This represented a fantastic thirty bicycles provided in needy areas.
Rob said “We would again like to thank very much all our customers for supporting this great initiative.”
“Dear Rob
