MVF Store Manager Paul Tipett presents Addington Fund Director Ian Bell with the multi fuel stove.
Leading rural retailer Mole Valley Farmers is supporting the Addington Fund, a farming charity that provides homes for farming families in need, by donating a Hamlet Solution 5 multi fuel stove worth over £560 to a housing project in Cornwall just in time for the colder months.
Commencing what is hoped will be a long standing partnership, Mole Valley Farmers and the Addington Fund joined together at the St Columb branch Heating Event Day, where Business Centre Manager Paul Tippett presented the stove to Addington Fund Director Ian Bell.
Ian Bell, Addington Fund Director said, “This is an incredibly generous gesture from Mole Valley Farmers, which will provide a practical solution to heating one of our affordable farming family homes in Cornwall. At a time of rising energy costs, this will have a major impact on the standard of living for one of our tenants.”
The stove donated by Mole Valley Farmers will go to a major housing project in Cornwall which will see the creation of four new affordable work and live space units for farming families. Launched at this year’s Cornwall Farm Business Awards, the project working in conjunction with Cornwall County Council, will see the redundant buildings of Ruthvoes Farm near Indian Queens completely re-generated, providing viable business options to local farm businesses and families.
Graham Venning, Mole Valley Farmers Product Manager said, “We are delighted to be able to support the Addington Fund by donating a multi fuel stove, which will keep a family’s fuel bills down. We hope to continue our partnership with this important charity into the future”
Mole Valley Farmers prides itself on the continued commitment and close relationships it has built up with the farming community over 50 years and this year’s partnership with the Addington Fund reinforces this commitment .
