HM The King’s Shropshire representative has pledged support for an organisation which distributes funding across the county.
Lord-Lieutenant Anna Turner has officially become a patron of the Shropshire Community Foundation, set up almost a year ago to channel funds from individuals, businesses and authorities to tackle community problems within the areas of highest need.
Shropshire Community Foundation chair Selina Graham – who was High Sheriff in 2022/23 and worked closely with Anna during that time – said she was delighted to have her support as a patron. Before SCF was set up last year, the county was one of very few in England not to have its own Foundation, instead receiving support from Staffordshire Community Foundation who continue to assist in the administration of region-specific grants handed down from central Government.
