Basepoint Bromsgrove recently presented a cheque of £5,000 to The Basement Project, a local charity which provides support for the homeless.

Basepoint Business Centres, who specialise in the development and operation of flexible business, innovation and enterprise centres, is owned by The ACT Foundation, a leading UK grant-making charity, dedicated to improving the quality of life of those in need. As such, each centre is dedicated to fundraising for a selected charity and The ACT Foundation match funds any money raised for the chosen charity, up to the value of £10,000 per centre.

The Basement Project is a daytime drop-in and outreach support service which provides information and practical and emotional support for young people who are homeless or are at risk of becoming homeless. The service is run by qualified youth workers with the help of volunteers and also provides access to cooking and washing facilities.

Elaine Beaumont, Basepoint Bromsgrove’s Centre Manager, comments: “We are delighted to be able to present this cheque to The Basement Project. It is fantastic to support a local charity as well as work alongside the local community and raise funds to help people have a roof over their head.”
