Aaron Glonek, the CEO of APG, spearheaded the initiative, accompanied by the beloved APG mascot. The duo visited Smyths toy store, where they purchased an array of gifts for children. Smyths generously contributed £50 to the fundraising effort, adding to the total funds collected.
In the spirit of giving, APG Home Improvements and APG Bathrooms, along with Aaron and the mascot, personally delivered the gifts to Barnardo's Central & East Child & Family Centre in Peterborough.
Aaron said: “We are truly overwhelmed by the community's support and generosity during our Christmas Appeal. The success of this fundraiser is a testament to the caring spirit of our community. It's heartening to know that we can make a positive impact on the lives of children through our collective efforts.
