A WARRINGTON charity has received a £4,870 grant to expand its educational work in the town.
The MacIntyre Charity received the boost from the Community Grants Fund, which is operated by Learning Together Cheshire and Warrington to provide opportunities for learning and skill development.
The grant will support the work of MacIntyre Project with adults with learning disabilities in Warrington, enabling it to expand services currently offered.
These include learning and development opportunities in a real work situation in the community café which the charity runs as a social enterprise in the Gateway in Sankey Street.
Darren Briggs, from MacIntyre Charity, said: “This will provide a fantastic opportunity to allow the expansion of the café and move into outside catering, helping the café to become more sustainable and providing other work-based learning opportunities to all existing learners and open up new placements for other learners to enrol and work in the café.”
