Coronavirus: a message from Francesca Roberts, Chief Executive, CRASH Charity

While we are facing an unprecedented situation together, we’re also a community, and it’s the kindness and support we can all give each other that will help us to get through these difficult times.

The coronavirus pandemic is affecting each one of us, as well as our families, our communities and professionally through our businesses.

The current health crisis will also disproportionately impact the many vulnerable people CRASH charity is here to help. Adults and children who are terminally ill and in need of end of life care, and those who are homeless, or at risk of homelessness, will be needing even more support at this time.

As the construction industry’s charity, we rely entirely on the generosity and goodwill of the industry to continue to create places that care for vulnerable people, and I sincerely ask you to continue to help us.

Our fundraising events provide a vital source of income for CRASH charity. While we will do our very best to continue to host fundraising events and challenges over the coming months, some will inevitably have to be cancelled or postponed.

I, therefore, appeal to you, to continue to support our work in the months ahead by making a company or individual donation to CRASH.

You can DONATE safely and securely here.

Thank you for the kindness and loyalty you have shown in the past and please don’t forget CRASH and the people we help.

We need you now more than ever.

Take care and a big thank you from us all at CRASH.

Francesca Roberts
Chief Executive, CRASH Charity
