SG World raises money for Cheshire Academy 

It’s always nice to put something back into the community, and the employees of SG World have been doing just that! 

In 2006, SG World began to support the Cheshire Academy for integrated Sport & Art, a centre founded in March 1993 that provides sporting opportunities for individuals with physical, sensory and learning disabilities.  The Academy works with children as young as 18 months through to adults, supporting their development with various sports activities such as; football, gymnastics, athletics, boccia, table tennis and many more…

The Academy also has close ties with local colleges and universities, providing students with valuable work experience and ensuring the staff and individuals who attend have ongoing encouragement and support.

SG World has been actively helping the academy in a number of ways.  Firstly, last summer SG World constructed a climbing frame and play area for the younger individuals to use when they visited the centre, and also helped repaint some of the rooms in the centre; adding special designs to brighten up the interior.

In addition to this, SG World has also continued to support the centre by holding a variety of fund raising events such as, quiz nights, dress down day and a Christmas donation scheme.

Into 2007, SG World will continue to support the Academy, and hopes to raise as much, if not more money than last year.  Over the next few months, employees will be volunteering to help build a picnic area with benches etc. for the summer months, so members can really benefit from being out doors and also enabling friends and family to come along and watch the sporting activities taking place.
