A HORSFORTH-BASED financial planning firm has announced its charity for the coming year.
For the past 12 months Manse Capital has supported the Jane Tomlinson Appeal and Yorkshire Air Ambulance, raising more than £2,000 for the charities.
The financial planning company has now confirmed it will be backing the Leeds Community Foundation (LCF) over the next year.
A number of events, including a a business and community bake sale, several team runs and a year-long charitable 'dress down Friday', will be held to raise money.
And to start the partnership Manse Capital has joined the foundation's Leeds 100 Club by donating an initial £1,000.
Managing Director Paul Everett said: "We are so excited to be raising money for such important causes in our local community.
"We hope our donations will enable the Leeds Community Foundation to continue to provide and reach out to more charities and voluntary services in our region.
"As a company, we pride ourselves on giving back to the local community and local charities, and are pleased to be supporting such a dynamic source of funding in our region."
LCF supports charities and voluntary groups across Leeds who are addressing inequalities and other important issues in their communities
The charity's Development Officer, Rachel Evans, said: "We are delighted that Manse Capital has chosen to champion and support the work of Leeds Community Foundation by joining our 100 Club, making a real difference in the communities of Leeds that need it the most."
