Director, Tim Carey says:

We work with our customers who have a wide range of needs; some customer’s needs are simple companionship or domestic duties. However we also work with the St Barnabas Hospice, with palliative care customers, some of whom are cancer suffers with complex needs.

1 in 3 of us will experience cancer in some way shape or form in our lives, raising awareness of the help and support that is available, and supporting the research into cancer is a very worthwhile cause. I am really proud that the team have come together and decided to help support cancer research and take on the 10km race for life.“
