Sunnyfield - Our History
Sunnyfield has been in existence for
MANY years and
IS a charity which does fantastic work. Income from the various businesses is used to fund activities for people with intellectual disabilities. Essentially to prevent them from being institutionalised.
When I was a kid, I had a friend in my street who went to Sunnyfield every day. She no doubt benefited from a) a more or less mainstream education, and b) being integrated into society (for want of better words) as a productive employee once her education was complete. She would have received neither of these had she been placed in an institution, which was the norm in those days.
Those of you who doubt the intent of Sunnyfield should check the above link.
I won't get into the argument of QF being a good corporate citizen. They sort of answered that one themselves - business decision or not
