Second Time Around
On the 11th of July, Second Time Around Community Shop donated a cheque to Blue Wave Martial Arts, a local group run by chief instructor Alex Andrews, see image above.
Founded in 2005, this group aims to provide high quality martial arts, self protection and fitness training, thus creating confident children and successful adults. Alex is a super guy whose passion is to help youngsters achieve their full potential through this club. We at the Second Time Around Community Shop appreciate the time and effort Alex and his family put into making this possible for local people.
We are so pleased to be able to give something to this club to help them. Andy has said that the money will be used to provide four basic free self protection courses to the local community (https://www.bluewave-taekwondo.co.uk).
We at Second Time Around want to thank local people who donate to our community shop in the town square for their donations. Whether it’s clothing, books or bric-a-brac; your donations really do make a difference to the local community and make things like this possible. Without you and your support, we couldn’t help local clubs and organisations.
Last year we helped many individuals, as well as groups like; Syston In Bloom, Syston Theatre Group, The Friendship Club and we also raised money for a special bed adapted for a young boy.
So THANK YOU from all the staff and volunteers at Second Time Around Community Shop and please remember us when having a sort out at home, every little helps.
