Every year since coming into office in 2011, the Chief Minister has made a donation to a local charity in lieu of sending out official Christmas cards. This year’s beneficiary is the Special Needs Action Group who, yesterday, were presented with a cheque by the Chief Minister at No.6 Convent Place
The Chief Minister, the Hon Fabian Picardo QP MP, said: ‘When we were elected into Government 10 years ago, the Government decided to make a donation to a local charity instead of sending out official Christmas cards. This year, I am delighted to present this donation to the Special Needs Action Group. Although only having been formed recently, SNAG have done a magnificent job in raising awareness for all those with disabilities and also those with special needs. I hope that this donation of £3,000 will be a small contribution to support their valuable and critical work and assist them with their future plans of helping to make a positive difference to the lives of those who most need our help.’
