Amazon support for Curly Star Dream Foundation

The Amazon fulfilment centre in Dunfermline has made a £1,000 donation to a suicide and bereavement support charity in Fife.

The Curly Star Dream Foundation was set up by the family of Candice Easton, who sadly died by suicide in 2005. The charity supports those who are suffering from suicidal thoughts, or those who have lost someone to suicide, by hosting mental health advice workshops.

The donation will be put towards a future project, working with staff and pupils in local primary schools.

Speaking on the donation, Jamie Strain, General Manager at Amazon in Dunfermline, said: “The Curly Star Dream Foundation is an amazing charity that provides essential support to grieving families and to those who are suffering from mental health problems.

“I am glad that we can make this donation to support its work.”

Jackie Easton, Chair of The Curly Star Dream Foundation, said: “I would like to say thank you to Jamie and the Amazon team in Dunfermline for this donation.

“This support will allow us to continue providing vital support to those who are struggling with their mental health or are grieving the loss of a loved one.”

The donation to The Curly Star Dream Foundation was made as part of Amazon’s programme to support the communities in and around its operating locations across the UK.
