Boss pledges to help sick kids [View all]

A Heanor businessman is pledging a share of cash from new contracts he lands to help terminally-ill children go on a dream trip to Florida.

Bret Harrison, who owns Excel Cleaning Solutions, on Newlands Road, is to give 15 per cent of profits from all new business to help the youngsters, some of whom havejust months to live, go on the holiday to Disney World as part of a scheme run by Caudwell Children.

...

He said: “Each week Rebecca from Caudwell Children speaks about the wonderful work that the charity does. One week she spoke about the fact that the charity was facing the possibility of not being able to hold its 
annual Destination Dreams trip due to lack of funds.

“The thought of these children and families not being able to have what might be the only holiday they would get as a family really touched me and I felt compelled to help.”
