2024 United Taxis
We are thrilled to announce a generous donation of £1600 from our amazing supporters at United Taxis! Your kindness and generosity are truly appreciated. 🙏
As a team of dedicated volunteers, we rely on the generosity of the local community and businesses for funding. This incredible contribution will play a vital role in keeping our team on the road. It will fund callout travel expenses and enable us to attend trailing training camps, which are essential for bringing a new search discipline to our team.
Your support means the world to us and helps ensure we can continue our important work in the community. Thank you, United Taxis, for your unwavering support. Together, we are making a difference! 🧡
