Published: 06/12/2017

We have recently been collecting some items for Kent & South East based charity Porchlight who support people with nowhere to go. Our donations specifically will help those with no-one to turn to over the Christmas period.  Some of these people are people are homeless, others are struggling to cope with the pressures in their lives and need some support to keep on track.

Some of these people are people are homeless, others are struggling to cope with the pressures in their lives and need some support to keep on track. 

Porchlight help vulnerable and isolated people get support with their mental health, housing, education and employment.

They also provide children, young people and adults with the advice, guidance and skills to live independently in the future, play an active role in their local community and fulfill their potential..

We collected toiletries which will go towards those living in the charities hostels and are delighted to be able to support such a fantastic cause. 

Corporate Partnerships Manager Kate popped into the office to collect the donations which were presented by Care Manager Mel.

Mel explained:
We wanted to do something that was easy for our team of care assistants to get involved in and know that they have made a difference themselves.

I would like to thank our team for their generosity and it was positive to also meet Kate as she popped by to collect the items.

Christmas can be a challenging time of year for those who Porchlight support so we are delighted to play our part.
