Mental health charity Mind BWW has received a £500 donation from drug, alcohol and DNA testing laboratory, AlphaBiolabs as part of its Giving Back campaign
For every testing instruction AlphaBiolabs receives from family law and social work professionals, the customer's name is entered into a bimonthly draw and a customer randomly selected to nominate a charity of their choice.
Winner of this bimonthly charity draw is Sophie Sibley (pictured), a solicitor at London law firm, Hanne & Co.. Sophie nominated Mind in Brent, Wandsworth & Westminster (Mind BWW) to receive the £500 donation.

‘This donation will help Mind BWW expand its reach, offer more services, and make a tangible difference in the lives of individuals struggling with mental health issues’.
Charlotte Fletcher, Director of Business Development & Innovation at Mind BWW, said: ‘The importance of donations like this cannot be underestimated.
