Barclays Bank Raise Money For Mentor Link

A big thank you from Mentor Link to all the staff at Barclays Bank Kidderminster for raising £1601.37 at our recent abseil. The weather was particularly bad when the Barclays team abseiled down the tower at Abberley Hall but despite the downpour everyone took part with good grace. A special thank you to Sandra Johnson who is one of our volunteer mentors at The Bewdley School and organised the team. Sandra has a son at The Bewdley School and has mentored many young people there.
