Having conversed with the student caller, Mr Bonte, kindly agreed to donate £900 to purchase an HP laser printer for the library.
The students will benefit from the new facility enormously, as there is a shortage of printers available and long queues during peak times.

It is extremely motivating for us.”
A plaque will be erected by the printer acknowledging Mr Bonte’s generous support.
