Little Gems Preschool in Leicester has received a £600 donation from the Pavers Foundation, The Foundation made the donation on behalf of Samantha Grove, a Pavers colleague from the Stapleton store who applied through the employee-led, charitable giving scheme.
Little Gems is a small independent preschool which services the village of Whetstone and is described by Samantha as ‘a welcoming and homely place, helping children through their milestones while having fun and learning each day’. Samantha's youngest son, Charlie, currently attends Little Gems and Samantha told us how he is thriving under the setting of the preschool.
The donation was used to purchase a set of new and adjustable tables and chairs which all the children and staff to use. Kirsty Jones, Manager at the preschool told us the purchase of the tables would not have been possible without the donation from the Pavers Foundation. She added, ‘Our new furniture has already made a big difference. The children are more engaged during activities, more settled at mealtimes, and overall, it has enhanced their daily experience in a way that’s both meaningful and lasting’.
