James Woodfall, the owner of Woodfall Wealth Consultancy which is a Partner Practice of St James’s Place, has donated £1000 through the St James’s Place Foundation to Kent based charity The Kent Foundation.
On the 16th July James presented the cheque to Paul Barron and Liam Behn from The Kent Foundation, which provides free business support to Kent’s young people looking to start or grow their business.
James first found out about the charitable work of The Kent Foundation at an Institute of Directors event back in September 2014. Since then he has been a proactive supporter of the Foundation, including sponsoring a Golf Day in June 2015. He is also a sponsor for the upcoming Kent Foundation 30th Celebration in October and shares his business contacts to improve the charity’s profile.
In response to his donation, James owner of Woodfall Wealth Consultancy states:
‘Being a business owner myself, I recognise the importance of advice and mentoring in situations of troubles and isolation. The Kent Foundation provides an invaluable support network to young people who are starting their own business.’
Paul Barron, Director of Kent Foundation shared his gratitude for the donation:
‘With such a generous donation from James we can continue to provide innovative Mentoring to the young entrepreneurs of Kent. The money will be used to train Volunteer Business Mentors who will offer 1-2-1 advice and guidance. Thanks to James our next induction training is scheduled for Autumn 2015.’
