A DONATION of paper towel dispensers by Essity Prudhoe Mill is helping local charities and community groups to keep staff, volunteers and visitors safe by encouraging frequent handwashing in line with Covid-19 guidelines. County councillor Gordon Stewart, who represents Prudhoe South, helped the mill identify a number of suitable locations that so far include Prudhoe and Stonehaugh Parish Halls, The Miners Lamp, The Torch Centre, Hexham, Adderlane Primary School and St Matthews Primary School. “This is a very welcome donation, and I was pleased to lend my support when Essity asked for help in identifying where these dispensers would be of most use", Gordon said. “This is another generous gesture from a business that has not only spent hundreds of thousands of pounds in keeping its employees Covid-secure, but has also donated huge amounts of toilet roll, face masks and now paper towel dispensers to the local community."
