“Due to the exceptional circumstances families have endured as result of the pandemic, and lockdown restrictions, we wanted to ensure local people had the opportunity to remember their mum or mother figure on Mother’s Day.”
The special event will help to support Huntington’s Disease Association as Westerleigh Group’s corporate charity of the year.
