Welfare & Support
Words and figures are plain and cold, but behind each amount can lay a tale of true heartache and anguish. Where we can we believe in assisting as quickly as possible and encourage those who want to support themselves.
On top of the financial help the support given by numerous professional tradesmen must be recognised, so many donate their time and materials saving us thousands of pounds, humanity must prevail and as the Baton’s Message of Conscience says “be loyal to those who loyally serve and their families”
