The Property Centre, an estate agent with branches located across Gloucestershire and Worcestershire, has donated £20,000 to charity.

In celebration of the estate agent’s 25th year in business last year, the team decided to mark the milestone by donating £25 to charity for every new property they instructed that went on to complete or let before the end of 2022.

In support of the four main areas covered by their branches, a charitable cause in each locality was chosen, with the total split equally between the four charities.

With five branches across Gloucester, The Property Centre chose to donate to the Chamwell Centre, which enables pupils of The Milestone School and SAND Academy, along with children, young people and adults throughout Gloucestershire to overcome disability.

National Star was selected as the chosen charity in Cheltenham. This provider enables young people with disabilities to realise their potential through education and personalised learning opportunities as well as providing other transition and accommodation services.

In Stroud, money was donated to Longfield Community Hospice, a charity for adults in Gloucestershire with a life-limiting illness which provides free care and support for patients and their loved ones, helping families make the most of their time together.

With two offices located in Worcester, The Property Centre chose to donate to St. Richard’s Hospice, a charity that cares for people with severe progressive illnesses, whose complex needs cannot be met by other services. These include cancer and neurological, respiratory, cardiac and renal conditions.

Stuart Nash, co-founding senior partner at The Property Centre, said: “As an independent company with estate agents in Gloucester, Cheltenham, Worcester and Stroud, it’s important to us to support our local communities and the charities which serve them.”
