Store plays part in charity drive

The team at The Original Factory Shop in Fleet Street, Holbeach is marking a community milestone, having raised £623 so far for Make-A-Wish UK – the charity that grants life-changing wishes to children living with critical illnesses.

The Holbeach team has been fundraising through in-store donation drives, local events and customer engagement events.

Among the initiatives was a raffle for a hamper that was won by Vicky Crowden.

Jason Suckley, CEO of Make-A-Wish UK, said: “Wishes have the power to cut through the gruelling reality of life for a child with a critical illness. It’s thanks to partners like The Original Factory Shop and communities like Holbeach that more children will receive the life-changing power of a wish, sooner.”
