Bishop TimThe 125 Winter Fuel Fund has been backed by Leicestershire fitness guru Rosemary Conley. She said: "I’m very happy to give my winter fuel allowance to help someone else who needs it more. How great that so many of us “of a certain age” are linking up in Leicestershire and across the whole country like this, to make something really special happen."
Bishop of Leicester the Right Rev Tim Stevens said: "This is an innovative way of releasing the generosity of the people of our city and counties and helping local people old and young in real need.”
We have already helped give over £3.5m locally, and we are part of the network of Community Foundations, one of the fastest growing philanthropic movements in the UK, dedicated to strengthening communities by enabling good local giving.
