GULLIVER’S Theme Park Resorts based in Warrington is thanking customers for their generosity after they helped raise more than £15,000 to support the people of Ukraine.
The family firm pledged that £3 from every ticket bought over last weekend at its three open resorts – Gulliver’s Valley theme park in Rotherham, Gulliver’s Land in Milton Keynes and Gulliver’s World in Warrington – would be given to the Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC).
In total the initiative raised more than £15,000 which will now be donated straight to the DEC’s Ukraine Appeal.
Julie Dalton, managing director of Gulliver’s Theme Park Resorts, said: “As a company, we like to do what we can to help the communities we serve but sometimes there is a need to offer support when things are happening further afield. The awful scenes in Ukraine have affected us all and we knew we wanted to financially help the official appeal.
“And our customers did not disappoint! Together we have raised over £15,000 which is an incredible amount and will go to the Disaster Emergency Committee’s Ukraine fund which is used to provide support, medical aid, food and shelter to people affected by the crisis.
“We’d just like to say a massive thank you to our customers for their support.”
