AN adult learning disability charity received a New Year boost after joining forces with a property maintenance firm.

March-based charity FACET (Fenland Area Community Enterprise Trust) will team up with Wisbech company Foster Property Maintenance to provide a host of initiatives.

These include Fosters providing cost-only repairs to FACET facilities, provision of skills appreciation workshops and purchase goods produced by the charity.

Steven Foster, director at Fosters, said: “Joining up with FACET, who do such great work, will enable us to help a number of people and help FACET create a legacy we can all be proud of”.
