News & Events News Not such an unlucky Friday 13th We send our special thanks to Butterworth Jones and Thomas Westcott Chartered Accountants, who raised £11,437 to share between Ups and Downs Southwest and BRACE. The money was raised by the staff from donations, fundraising and a charity ball attended by more than 180 people at Batch Country House on last October. The firm presented cheques to both charities at their offices in Weston-super-Mare last Friday, BRACE receiving £5,650. BRACE Chief Executive Mark Poarch said afterwards, "This is a magnificent fundraising total and it is brilliant that Butterworth Jones and Thomas Westcott have managed to support two charities so generously. "The cheque gives us a great boost as we enter Dementia Awareness Week."
