“The Foundation continues to grow and having the Vertas Group’s support will allow us to enhance our disability provision offering, enabling us to engage with more children and adults within Ipswich, Suffolk, and the surrounding areas. On behalf of the Foundation, I’d like to thank the Vertas Group for their backing. It will make a genuine difference to the mental and physical well-being of current and future participants.”
