Charity of the Year

Dean's is proud of its roots in the community and we think its important to show our appreciation by supporting local charities. Every year our staff nominate a Charity of the Year and since 2002 to 2012 we have raised over £146,000 for a range of good causes. In 2012 we raised over a total of £19,000 for the Alzheimer's Society through events and customer and staff donations throughout the year. Click here to read the full article from York Press.
