Thanks @RichParkerLab for this generous donation - these passes will help us connect the Multibank resource to those who need it most. Really appreciate your support, and your input to today’s launch!
The West Midlands Multibank will make a real difference to many families. It will support 75,000 families in need. I've donated 1,000 monthly bus passes to give a helping hand to those who need it.
