The Big Heat - Winter Fuel Payments are now being paid and Bucks Community Foundation is asking for anyone who feels they could donate their payment to their Big Heat Fund which helps local older people to keep warm and healthy this winter to get in touch with them. Since 2000, the Foundation has worked with local people who have given more than £3million which has helped over 1,500 community groups and projects in Bucks. Long Crendon Day Centre which relies on donations to operate and provides hot lunches and a warm environment for elderly clients twice a week is one local project which has benefited from the Fund. Please ring 01296 330134 or email info@buckscf.org.uk if you feel you can donate all or part of your Winter Fuel Payment.
