BUPA TEAM COMMUNITY CHALLENGE TO DEVELOP SCHOOL READING CORNER

Employees from Goldsborough Estates, which is part of the Bupa Group and specialises in the management of private retirement and assisted living properties, will be taking part in a community challenge on Thursday 8 October from 9.00am. The team will be transforming a reading corner at Christ Church Upper Armley Church of England School, Leeds. The team of 11 will be redecorating and refurbishing the unused corner and turning it into a bright and welcoming area for pupils to use throughout the day. There will be new furniture supplied including chairs, bean bags, rugs and curtains and the walls will receive a lick of paint. Katherine Moore, team leader, adds: “The team from Goldsborough Estates is delighted to be taking part in a challenge which will benefit the school and the local community. It’s very rewarding to know that our efforts will mean that the school has a comfortable and inviting reading area in which the children can spend time developing their reading skills.” Siobhan Drane, Bupa’s community affairs consultant, says: “Our Goldsborough team are raring to go and it’s wonderful to see so many members of our team taking part. It really will make a big difference to the school and the local community.”
