Housebuilder donates £20,000 to Leeds bed charity
Housebuilder Redrow is continuing to support a Leeds-based charity that helps children and their families living in poverty across Yorkshire.
Redrow Yorkshire has been a dedicated supporter of the charity Zarach since 2022, making donations with every new show home bedroom opened in Yorkshire and providing additional contributions throughout the partnership, most recently donating £20,000.
Zarach was started in 2017 in Leeds by deputy head teacher Bex Wilson and offers support to families across Yorkshire, the Tees Valley, and Merseyside.
Redrow supports the charity’s Every Head a Bed project, which provides bed bundles, including a new bed, mattress, bedding and pyjamas.
The donation means Zarach’s partnership with Redrow across Yorkshire and the North West has now generated over £48,000, equating to 320 bed bundles.
Zarach’s CEO Andy Peers said: “Partnerships like this one are incredibly special to us, with this fantastic support built into Redrow’s core operations.
"We’re so thankful to the entire Redrow team who have supported us for more than three years now, making a long lasting impact on the children and families that we support, helping children get a good night’s sleep, and the chance to thrive at school.”
Steve Jackson, sales director at Redrow Yorkshire, said: “We are proud to continue supporting Zarach with this £20,000 donation.
"Through donations linked to every new show home bedroom we open, alongside additional contributions such as this one, we hope to help Zarach continue its invaluable work supporting people when they need it most and we will continue to support their ongoing efforts.”
