MGL Group, a family-run business, has donated items to to enhance skills and training in secure inpatient services at Ridgeway, Roseberry Park Hospital.
The donation will support the joinery department, enabling patients to develop valuable woodworking skills. MGL Group’s local suppliers, Jewson Civils Frazer and Workwear Express, have also donated tools and PPE to support this important initiative.

Gillian Reader, MGL Group’s Director, expressed her enthusiasm for the initiative, saying, “We’re proud to partner with Ridgeway to support their patients’ wellbeing and development. Our donation will help TEWV provide the best possible care.”
Jamie Todd, director of operations and transformation for adult learning disabilities, child and adolescent mental health services and Ridgeway secure inpatient services for the Durham, Tees Valley and forensic care group, added: “Thank you to MGL Group and their suppliers for their support. The donated resources will help the people we care for learn new skills and improve their confidence. We can’t wait to see what they create.”
