East Kent Mencap

East Kent Mencap provides opportunities for people with learning disabilities to live life to the fullest and achieve their ambitions. 

We have awarded a £5,000 donation to help them run a health and wellbeing project focusing on healthy eating and physical activity, helping service users to become more independent and active. 

Morrisons staff from the store in Margate presented the cheque on behalf of the Foundation. Community Champion Hannah Giles said "We were delighted to meet with the East Kent Mencap team and find out more about the great work that they do in our local community."

Kimberley Besant from East Kent Mencap said: "For participants to fully understand how important a healthy diet and exercise are to their wellbeing they need regular support. This funding from the Morrisons Foundation means that we can continue the work we have been undertaking on how to lead a healthy lifestyle."
