SEGRO, an owner, manager and developer of warehousing and industrial space, has launched the fourth and final fundraising round for its Centenary Fund.
SEGRO’s £10 million ($13 million) Centenary Fund has focused predominantly on supporting existing and new projects that have provided vital support to vulnerable members of the community who have been impacted by coronavirus, said the firm.
The fund has raised £800,000 ($1 million) since it was launched six months ago, allocating funding to more than 60 community projects.
SEGRO said the first phase of funding responded directly to emergency projects to provide basic necessities, such as food, medicines and household essentials, and to support other initiatives that helped to alleviate the impact of the crisis on vulnerable communities.
The fund also supported community charity partners to help continue their skills, training and employability programs.
