Support from our communities Over the last 12 months, we have been blessed with such unimaginable outpourings of support from our local communities (and some even further afield) which we are extremely grateful for. We’d like to thank everyone who did their part to give our colleagues a boost, whether this was taking part in the key-worker claps, donating food and other care items, or fundraising, and even those of you who took the time to leave a supportive comment on our Facebook page. Thank you.
