Zen Internet has announced its support for
Boomerang, a charity in England's North West that helps to
care for disabled children in the
Bury area. Zen's employees will now aim to take part in various events throughout the year to help support their chosen charity.
Boomerang was founded in November 2007 by a group of parents and carers of disabled children in the Bury area. The
Sensory Play Centre includes a Sensory room, a state-of-the-art interactive learning area and a Soft Play room that helps to develop skills including cause and effect together with colour and number recognition.
Caroline Taylor, HR Manager and a Head of Zen's Social and Charities Committee, said:
"Zen has its roots in the North West and as such we have a real passion for the local area, which is why we selected Boomerang as our chosen charity for this year. We are fully committed to our chosen charity to ensure all of fundraising activities can make a real difference. Our first event was the Halloween Fun Day which was a great success. We will be continuing with our efforts throughout the year including once again the Great Manchester Run."
Zen employees managed to raise almost
£7,000 for last year's charity,
Dr Kershaw's Hospice in Oldham, so Boomerang are definitely in good hands for the next 12 months.
