WEST FIFE charity Hyperclub has received a £1,000 boost towards its new home.

The group, which has helped children, adults and the elderly with learning difficulties in the area for the past nine years, are keen to move into their new Chalmers Street home.

They are set to switch from Inverkeithing to the former Bubbles Bathroom Centre in Dunfermline this year.

Thanks to a donation from Amazon Dunfermline, they can also continue providing support to all those in need.

Throughout lockdown, Hyperclub has been delivering more than 500 parcels of sensory activities and food packs for those in the local area who are now unable to attend their regular meetings at the charity’s base.

Suzie Connelly, founder of Hyperclub, added: “Thanks to this donation from Amazon in Dunfermline, we will be able to continue supporting those who need us, even throughout lockdown. We cannot thank Jamie (Strain, site leader at Amazon in Dunfermline) and the team enough for their generosity."

It is the second time that Amazon has supported Hyperclub after a £1,000 donation was also made in 2018 when children and adults from the charity were surprised with the gesture on a behind-the-scenes tour of the fulfilment centre.

Jamie Strain, site leader at Amazon in Dunfermline, said: “Hyperclub provides invaluable social support to so many people from all over Fife. The charity’s team has been continuing to offer resources for those in their care throughout lockdown and we wanted to recognise their contribution to the wellbeing of people in our community by boosting their work with this donation.”
