Family firm presents local specialist school with over £7,000

K. Ginder & Sons Funeral Directors in Watford has raised over £7,000 towards a new hydrotherapy pool at Woodfield School in Hemel Hempstead which caters for students with complex and severe learning difficulties.

Managing director, Adam Ginder pictured alongside students and deputy head teacher, Beverley Hamilton, said that “the staff and helpers at Woodfield School provide a fantastic facility and opportunity to children in the local community, and the new pool and treatment rooms will go towards assisting their learning and development.”

The money raised at M. K. Ginder & Sons’ Annual Memorial Golf Day has gone towards the installation of the new facility. It allows the students to receive the one-to-one assistance needed, whilst enjoying all of the freedoms and joy the swimming pool provides. The pool has been fitted with specialist hoists and variable coloured lighting to meet the individual user’s needs.

The school has also provided facilities so that parents and the local community can use the pool, treatment rooms and coffee shop to help with the continual funding and upkeep of the facility.

Adam Ginder added, “We are always looking for local and worthy causes to support throughout the year, through our golf day and other events, and we are honoured to be donating this money to Woodfield School on this occasion.”

Daniel Ginder who organises the Ginder Memorial & Charity Golf Day wished to “thank everyone who participated or contributed to the golf day and the charity”. This year’s event will be on Friday 14 July. Please contact [email protected] for more details.
