Scarborough Disability Action Group Appeals for Support

Saturday, 8 February 2025 06:00

By Matthew Pells

The charity is calling on local companies to support Scarborough DAG in it's 35th year.

Scarborough Disability Action Group, a charity which helps disabled people and carers in Scarborough & District each year by providing information and advice about a wide range of key issues surrounding disability, is encouraging local businesses to get involved by making donations or hosting fundraising initiatives. 

Ian Whitfield DAG chair said: 

"DAG does incredible work in the community and recently celebrated our 35th birthday, We invite companies and businesses to join us in making a real impact—whether through direct donations or fundraising events." 

"We have seen a huge increase in people needing our services and this puts financial pressure on basic resources such as stamps paper ink which have skyrocketed in price over the past few years, we helped 1 thousand people last year with a appointment”

“Support from businesses is invaluable in helping us continue our mission to support disabled people and carers

We welcome any business that wants to get involved.”

"Every contribution, big or small, can make a real difference in the lives of those who rely on the charity’s services."

Companies looking to contribute can donate directly to Scarborough DAG or via local giving through the website https://www.scarboroughdag.co.uk or email scarboroughdagoffice@gmail.com

This is the Coast is committed to providing a daily local news service for the Yorkshire Coast. We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.

If you appreciate what This is the Coast does, and would like to help support our journalism, please consider supporting us on a monthly basis today.

A small contribution from all our readers would really help support independent journalism for the Yorkshire Coast.
