The recent poll carried out by Bluebird Care discovered that a startling 1.3 million people across the UK are lonely, so in response to this we have launched an Autumn & Winter recruitment drive.

As the winter approaches, the volume of people that continue to live with loneliness is staggering and with individuals living longer there is a high demand for home care. At Bluebird Care Sunderland we are hoping this new campaign will help raise awareness in the community of our increased need for care assistants through a variety of recruitment efforts.

Thomas Chacko, director of Bluebird Care Sunderland, commented:
 
The numbers of those that are lonely in our North East region are shocking, as a care provider it is often our care assistants who offer companionship and a friendly face to our customers who may spend a lot of time on their own. By increasing the number of care assistants we have, we can look at what further support we can offer our customers and help reduce the number of those who suffer from loneliness in our community.
