Mark Manning, manging director of Manning Stainton said: “We’ve been blown away by the response to our Schools Support Fund and are absolutely delighted to have been able to help so many schools and pupils across the region.
“So many children have been affected by school closures over the past year, and schools are working really hard to make up for lost time in the classroom.
"Our support fund is still open, so if you work at a school and need financial support to fund something that will benefit your pupils, then please get in touch.”
