ONE of Middlesbrough's biggest employers has raised £400 to be used for fun and games by disabled children.
The town's Mayor, Ray Mallon, accepted the cheque on behalf of the Friends of Gleneagles Resource Centre (Frogs) after staff at HBS held a fancy dress day at the end of last year.
Gleneagles Resource Centre was set up in 1998 and provides services and activities for about 600 disabled youngsters in the Middlesbrough area.
Tim Lonsdale, northern managing director of HBS, a private firm which provides services for Middlesbrough Council, handed over the cheque to Mr Mallon yesterday.
Mr Lonsdale said: "HBS is central to the community in Middlesbrough and we are pleased to be associated with Frogs, which does a lot of good work helping local children."
