The PreSchool provides very valuable early years learning and social interaction for children from both Stanton Drew and Pensford villages, helping prepare them for their entry into fulltime education.

The Trust is delighted to grant £1,000 to fund two staff members to renew their compulsory first aid training and to support the purchase of sets of wet weather clothes, together with funds to repair and re-weather outside equipment storage sheds.

Carole Reed, Secretary of the PreSchool group said “a big thank you to the Trust for helping us. We work very hard to provide this facility and it is great to receive this help from our Community”.

Judith Chubb Whittle said, ” the Trustees are delighted to be able to support this valuable community facility. The Committee and Staff work really hard to provide the best child experience possible from the Stanton Drew Hall and organise many fund raising events. It is great that The Trust can positively supplement this excellent work by the voluntary Committee and Staff. They make a difference”’
