St John’s Outreach Project in Mansfield has bought and decorated a disabled toilet with help of a £500 donation and volunteering from The Mansfield Building Society.

The project, established by residents in the Kirkby area, provides support to vulnerable people at its community centre on Skegby Road. The group is run by local volunteers who dedicate their time to maintaining the converted church centre and running various projects such as a soup kitchen.

As well as the donation from The Mansfield, finances, staff from the society volunteered to help add the finishing touches by painting and cleaning the newly-fitted bathroom.

Elaine Moulton, St John’s Outreach Project organiser, said: “We can’t thank Mansfield Building Society enough.”

The donation was made through the Mansfield Building Society’s Community Support Scheme. The scheme meets twice yearly to consider applications. Go to mansfieldbs.co.uk/community-support-scheme.

The project was also supported by the Mansfield Building Society’s Work in the Community scheme.
