Hide AdUTT, which launched more than ten years ago, was awarded £500 through CALA Homes’ annual Community Bursary scheme which helped the group buy new play equipment.
Steven Gregory De La Rosa, UTT senior outdoor officer, said: “We cannot thank CALA Homes (West) enough for its generosity.
“The money has already made such a difference in getting the equipment we wanted to provide for the children.
“We have been offering sessions for free throughout the pandemic and over the summer to help get children out of the house and into nature, as well as giving their parents and carers a break for a few hours. It’s a real lifeline for everyone involved.”
