A star-studded 80s ball at Liverpool's ACC has raised £180k for a children's charity.
The Very Group, which operates digital retailer Very, raised £180,000 for Coram Beanstalk at its sixth charity ball on Friday, December 2. Funds raised from the event will support the children's reading charity, who first partnered with Very in 2019, to continue to provide one-on-one reading support to children across the UK through its network of schools and volunteer reading partners.
The charity’s research shows 94% of schools receiving its support see an improvement in general attitude to learning, and that children who choose to read feel better about themselves, and do better in school and in life.
