Glossop-based charity PCrefurb has been given a funding boost thanks to a £5,000 donation from Amazon.
The donation has been made as part of the online giant’s programme to support the communities in and around its operating locations across the UK.
Welcoming the support from the Amazon team based in Manchester Helen Melhuish, from PCrefurb said: “Support like this helps our team provide a high standard of digital inclusion and support to vulnerable people in our community.”
