Rejoicing in the light of the Lord in our care homes this Christmas
We know that Christmas can also be a dark and difficult time for some. Among the older people who live in our homes there will be:
• Those whose loved ones are far away
• Those who have experienced loss and bereavement
• Those who have no close family
• Those who live with serious illness

Wonderfully, we provide places where older people can feel the light of God’s love through the care of our staff teams, the fellowship they share with one another and the time given by the volunteers who come to visit.
Could you give a gift this Christmas and help us provide places where older people can experience the fullness of life that comes through our Lord Jesus, not just at Christmas but all year round?
