MADL fund<\/strong><\/div><\/div>

Over the years Robinsons have been involved with numerous charities and fundraisers. On a regular and ongoing basis however, we feel that that one of the best ways to support our local community is to get involved with the schools & colleges around us. Many of the sports days and school events taking place in the borough have been sponsored by Robinsons, some for decades<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

We also pride ourselves as a main sponsor of the Carniny Amateur and Youth FC Football Development Centre, investing in our up and coming young footballers in the community, another relationship we have proudly embraced for many years<\/p>\n

From it\u2019s inception we have regularly been advocates and supporters of the Northern Ireland Air Ambulance and from time to time you will see awareness volunteers from other important and close to our heart national charities, such as Marie Curie or Cancer Research UK\u00a0 in-store<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Supporting the local community is at the forefront of what we do. Not just being your local shopping hub, but actively giving back to good causes, sports teams, schools, colleges and charities.
