Blyth Charity Darts Team Donation – A Huge Thank You!

 

We are over the moon to win a recent grant from Blyth Charity Darts Team after our dedicated and devoted staff applied for a £450 grant that was up for grabs!

Tracey White and her daughters Laura and Ashley, who are all carers at West Farm and form part of Blyth Charity Darts team, decided to enter Craig Healthcare for a chance of winning the grant. To enter, they simply had to explain what the grant would be used for.

Talking about the entry, Tracey said: “We got together and wrote a letter explaining how the grant will be donated to the residents’ fund, split equally between Cramlington House and West Farm. We were delighted to be awarded with the £450 cheque as it really will help to make a difference to the lives of our residents. The money will go into our minibus fund that we hope to purchase very soon. The minibus will play a big part in the care of our residents as it means trips and outings can be organised much more easily and quickly. Thank you so much for the kind donation, it really does mean the world!”

What people are saying

  • "I am very pleased with how my mother has settled in and generally how supportive and caring the staff are. This has given us peace of mind knowing that she is safe & well looked after. Thank you."

  • "Our mum has been a resident at Cramlington House for over a year and we have nothing but praise for the friendly, approachable staff and management. We always feel like part of an extended family and when we visit nothing is too much bother. We are completely happy with the standard of care, support and understanding we all receive as a family."

  • "From the first day, I knew it was the place for my mum. Clean, friendly staff, lovely environment! My mum would not get the opportunity to do the activities she is experiencing if she was not in Cramlington House. It is home from home and we can visit anytime. I can't say enough of how great Cramlington House is. "

  • "This is an absolutely superb care facility. The staff say that this is the home of the residents, in which they work - and they evidence that philosophy every day. In the last months of our mother's long life, we took comfort form the fact that she was safe and secure, being well-fed and looked after. The entire care team are brilliant. "

  • "All the staff at West Farm have provided such wonderful care, compassion and support to my auntie. We both feel incredibly lucky to have found West Farm, it’s been the perfect home for my auntie. I can honestly say, hand on heart, every aspect of the care provided by each member of staff at West Farm has been outstanding."
