London Gatwick has recently contributed nearly fourteen thousand pounds to support families in financial hardship through its partnership with the charity FreeShop Crawley.

FreeShop helps to provide essential services to over 600 people every week by offering food, mental health support, professional services and more.

During the recent October half-term, London Gatwick welcomed 13 families who use FreeShop to its Science Technology Engineering and Maths centre, where colleagues led STEM-related activities for children and engaged with parents about the career opportunities available at the airport.
