We're committed to making sure your donation makes a difference in the lives of older people and is used wisely, ​with integrity and transparency.
It costs us between £15,000 - £20,000 a year to employ each member of frontline staff. It's our biggest cost, but without our vital staff team we would not be able to:
Recruit, train and support volunteers to befriend care home residents

Facilitate a weekly zoom gathering to support and connect informal caregivers

Develop resources to help those living with dementia and their loved ones to enjoy special moments together
​
Mobilise churches to adopt their local care home to combat the loneliness and isolation of care home residents
