The Cedars Care Home and Central Co-Op Walk For Charity

Last Updated: 16 Sep 2024 @ 00:00 AM

Since 2017 The Cedars Care Home and RJ Scholes Funeral Services at Central Co-Op Bourne have raised money for local charities. This year we have chosen to support The Carer's Sitter Service: a local charity that provides free respite support and home sitting for people who are restricted because of the 24-hour care they are providing for dependent relatives and friends.

On Saturday 28th September, we will be completing our annual Memory Walk in order to raise funds for the service, walking 10 miles starting and finishing at the Cedars Care Home, stopping at the Five Bells Pub in Edenham where there will be the opportunity to take on refreshments and listen to guest speakers.

The Cedars Care Home has built up excellent reputations within its local community, regularly holding events and activities for residents and surrounding neighbours.

Rebecca Aldred, Senior General Manager at The Cedars Care Home said: ‘We are always keen to show as much support as we can to local charities, and we try to support our community in any way that we can. The Carers Sitter Service provides incredible support for unpaid carers in our area, and we are thrilled that we are able to support them with this year’s memory walk.

If you wish to enrol for this walk, please contact The Cedars on 01778 421555 or RJ Scholes on 01778 394687 for full details.
