Reach Services, NHS Trust 2014-2015
BCBN raises £37,500 for the Reach Services, NHS trust
Over 125 individuals from a business and professional background from the Muslim and wider community came together in support of the REACH Service, NHS Trust with the sole purpose of raising £37,500 that will allow REACH to pursue its life-changing work in providing assistance to disadvantaged people in vulnerable relationships and social support to families in crisis, helping to rebuild their lives. Through the generous contributions from our sponsors and donors, REACH will be able to employ a multi-lingual, Domestic Abuse Advisor at St Thomas’ Hospital, Accident & Emergency Unit to provide an outreach service that aids women of all ages and often their children in vulnerable situations where their wellbeing and safety is at risk.
Dr Vince Cable MP, Secretary of State for Business, Innovation & Skills, has consistently shown his support for BCBN initiatives and we are grateful for his time. On behalf of the trustees at BCBN we would like to thank all our sponsors and guests for supporting the cause. The event has been a success and has proven to be a great opportunity to demonstrate to the wider community how we as Muslims do care about issues which affect all of society and how, by simple actions, we can deliver huge benefits.
BCBN has committed to raising and donating funds for the Reach project since 2013 until present.
