Nelson’s Journey supports children and young people in Norfolk who’ve experienced the death of a significant person in their lives. Since 1997, the charity has helped thousands of bereaved children and young people with their services.
On 11 December, the charity hosted their ‘A Time to Remember’ memorial event where the community joined together to remember those that have died, with carol singers, candle lighting and crafts for children.
ABC Taxis, a regional brand of the UK’s fastest growing private hire technology platform Veezu, stepped in to sponsor the event and offered discounted rides to attendees, after donating £1000 to the charity last Christmas.
Chris Ford, Regional Operations Director at ABC Taxis, said: “Nelson’s Journey and ABC Taxis have a long-standing association as, beyond transportation, our commitment is to community and compassion. Supporting ‘A Time to Remember’ was an easy decision and we hope this event brings comfort and unity during the festive season to those who have lost a loved one.”
Gary Stevens, Funding and Marketing Manager at Nelson’s Journey, said: “We can’t thank ABC Taxis enough for their kind donation. ‘A Time to Remember’ is a lovely event to support those navigating bereavement this festive season, and we hope it provided solace and a sense of community to everyone who attended.”
