What is a supporter?

A supporter is someone who acts as a friend of the Benson Millstream Centre. They are every-day people who volunteer, become trustees or make regular/annual donations. Supporting us in any way can to really make a difference to our customers lives, even if it’s simply through  attending one of the many events we run to raise funds.

Benson Millstream Centre Supporters (BMCS), gives you the opportunity to become a member of BMCS by making an annual donation, which will help us ensure that we continue to offer the best service to our customers.

Fundraising at Benson Millstream Centre

Like many charities we struggle to obtain the funds that we need to provide all the services that we would like to promote and must rely on donations, requested grants and fundraising.

To maintain focus in these areas – our amazing Volunteers have worked hard to create a small fundraising group who meet in their own time on a regular basis to plan events across the year. We very much need the ongoing support of our customers/their families/community supporters and local businesses to sustain not just the basics but also to ensure that we make peoples’ lives a little bit better every day through centre events/treats and things to look forward to.

Get involved

If you would like to get more involved, become a Trustee, Volunteer  or help with running events or fundraising, please drop us an email using the get in touch details on the website.

Our events will be publicised on a quarterly basis, and we hope to see growing support both through our Benson Millstream Centre Supporters and our wonderful local communities.

Keep an eye out for what’s coming next in our quarterly newsletters. Thanks for helping in any way you can.

We are a registered Charitable Incorporated Organisation no. 1163000.
