ONE Hampshire charity has a million reasons to be happy after moving into a new home.
The Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) has enjoyed so much success and support since moving to Southampton seven years ago that the charity has had to relocate to a larger office.
The south coast team has moved from their base at Ford Motor Company to 59a Leigh Road in Eastleigh, where they will continue their preparations for this year’s Walk to Cure Diabetes on September 27.
Nicki Gerrard, JDRF’s regional development manager, said: “Since JDRF established an office in this area in 2002, we have raised around £1m.
“This would have been impossible without the help and support of Ford Motor Company and we really appreciate all they have done for us.”
To take part in this year’s walk and help fund research to cure Type 1 diabetes, call 023 8061 6622.
