Girlguiding Warwickshire received the donation as part of Amazon’s programme to support communities in and around its operating locations throughout the UK.
Amazon is providing disadvantaged students with online STEM courses as well as teaming up with charity partner Magic Breakfast and delivering more than six million healthy breakfasts to families across England.
