The Cabinet considered a report on a proposed contribution of up to £20,000 of funds from balances to the Local Strategic Partnership to support the purchase of a new vehicle for NewStarts Charity to enable them to continue their work supporting vulnerable people by way of the provision of free furniture and other household goods.
The Leader detailed the valuable work undertaken by NewStarts and reported that it was likely that other partnership organisations would be making a contribution towards the cost of the vehicle.
Following discussion it was
RECOMMENDED that the Council approve the release of up to £20,000 from balances to assist NewStarts Charity with the purchase of a new vehicle to be used for the collection and delivery of furniture.
