Gloucester-based construction company E G Carter & Co has made a £2,500 donation to local charity Wheels for All with a donation of £2500. This contribution will fund access to the facility for 500 disabled adults or children.

Wheels for All, led by Paul Shaftoe, is a programme dedicated to embracing children and adults with disabilities and differing needs. Each week, the dedicated team at Wheels for All facilitates the participation of 70-80 individuals, offering them the chance to ride bikes around the track. The program's inclusivity is evident in its provision of bikes tailored to the specific needs of each participant, ensuring that everyone, regardless of their abilities, can experience the joy of cycling and the sensory benefits of exercise.

Gavin Carter, Contracts Manager at E G Carter & Co Ltd, expressed his pride in supporting Wheels for All and the positive impact it will have on people's lives. "We are proud to support Wheels for All and the incredible work they do in our community," said Gavin Carter. "This donation reflects our commitment to making a difference in the lives of individuals with disabilities. By providing access to opportunities for engagement, we are contributing to a more inclusive and supportive community for all."

E G Carter & Co is a fourth-generation family owned regional building contractor established in 1945.
