True Potential Laptop Donation To Local School Welcomed by Catherine McKinnell MP
Catherine McKinnell, Member of Parliament for Newcastle North, has expressed her gratitude to True Potential for the donation of much needed laptops to Farne Primary School.
We’re committed to doing more at True Potential, and doing more for our community is as important as ever during the current lockdown challenges. The donation of these laptops was made possible when True Potential’s Senior Partner team approached Catherine to say they could donate new and reconditioned equipment to a local school in need.
Farne Primary School (part of the SMART Multi Academy Trust) had contacted Catherine to share their concern that a lack of equipment was proving a real barrier to learning for families at the school. Catherine was able to link up True Potential with the primary school so that the pupils could benefit.
Catherine was delighted to help True Potential’s mission to do more in the community. “I would like to thank True Potential LLP for their very generous donation of laptops to Farne Primary School,” she commented. “We have always known in Newcastle that our community stands shoulder to shoulder in the face of difficulty and this is a fantastic example of that Geordie spirit.
“It’s incredibly frustrating that many schools and children are still without the equipment they need to enable them to receive a quality education during this further period of national lockdown. It’s also why the local community stepping up has proved so vital.”
