The Place2Be Receives Support from The Freemasons' Grand Charity

On 16 January 2008 WBro James Sutcliffe Assistant Provincial Grand Master accompanied by the Burnley & Pendle District Chairman attended Reedley Community Primary School to present a cheque from the Freemasons' Grand Charity for £25,000 for the Place2B Charity. The Event was hosted by the school who put on a series of displays showing what children should do in the event of bullying and other personal abuse.

The Place2B will provide one-to-one counselling services with a drop-in service within schools. It will support troubled children, their families and carers with a view to give them the means to overcome their problems and for them to lead a successful life. It will start working in Burnley & Pendle in the spring of 2008 within 6 schools. The cheque for £25,000 will kick start the project and it is the first of three such donations to the Place2B Charity.

Pictured with the cheque for £25,000 are two of the children at Reedley Community Primary School who took part in an excellent presentation. At the rear from left to right is WBro James Sutcliffe Assistant Provincial Grand Master, Mr Chris Keene Chairman of the Place2B in Burnley & Pendle and WBro Donald Simpson Burnley & Pendle District Chairman
