Rob Butcher Surfacing Ltd.

A massive big thanks to Rob and his team for helping Brightlingsea Stroke Support Services out with a brand new pathway leading to the clubhouse including two new disabled parking bays for the stroke survivors and other mobility users when visiting the Football Club.

The new pathway is now in full use for BSSS on a Monday afternoon (2-4pm) and is making a big difference to all those who visit the club when watching the Regent ⚽️

Thanks Rob you’re a star 👏👏👏👏

We have just spent the last 12 x Saturday mornings raising our Community Stroke Groups awareness here in the Brightlingsea COOP and we’re delighted to announce that through many local in-store events (sponsored shave, tombola’s, winnie pooh raffle to name a few) we have raised an amazing £2240.99 at the Station Rd, Brightlingsea store.
A big thankyou to Store Manager Jenna Campbell and her staff for allowing us this opportunity. 👏👏👏👏

A massive thank you to Charley White for all her hard work and efforts in securing a Nationwide Employee’s Grant for our local Brightlingsea Community Stroke Group.
An amazing £10,000 has been donated by Charley which will go a very long way to help our stroke groups future funding.
Thanks Charley - you’re a superstar 👏👏

Thank you to everyone who donated, took part and organised the event.
Well done to Rob and the Blade Runners team who also rowed tirelessly for the whole day 👏👏

On volunteers week I would like to take the opportunity as the relatively new chair of trustees of Brightlingsea Stroke Support Service (BSSS) to thank every one of our volunteers that comes and helps to run our support sessions and enrich the lives of our stroke survivors each week. Without volunteers there would be no BSSS, you make a difference with every minute you spend with our stroke survivors and their families
You are seen, you are valued and we would be nothing without you
Thank you from all of us on the board and from our community. It takes courage to dedicate your time to these causes and you all do what you do brilliantly
If anyone new would like to volunteer with BSSS please do contact us

With all my heart felt thanks
Pam Green BSSS Trustee Chair.
