Community care provider supports Peasedown’s summer party

One of the region’s biggest providers of personal care-in-the-home has given their backing to Peasedown’s Party in the Park summer festival.

Care South, which has offices at the village’s Business Park, have signed up this week as the event’s latest sponsor.

Last Wednesday, three of the festival’s organisers, Joy Fraser, Nathan Hartley and Karen Walker, went along to thank staff for their support.

Party in the Park Chairman Nathan Hartley said: “We’re extremely grateful to Care South for their generosity. It’s thanks to businesses like theirs that allow us to put on such a successful event every year. In total, we need over £6,000 to host the event, so every contribution helps. The support from Care South means we are just that little bit closer to reaching out target.”

Care South offers a full range of care and support services for people aged 18 and over; from young adults who need some temporary help with everyday life, to older people looking for a new home with full-time care in one of their care homes.

As a not-for-profit charity the organisation’s focus isn’t on targets or sales, but a genuine dedication to supporting people in the community who need help to get the best out of life by offering high quality, compassionate care, which can be adapted to suit individual needs.

Jon Bowring is the Care Manager for Care South in Bath and North East Somerset. He added: “Everyone’s different and arranging care can be a challenge, so we like to work with individuals and their families to choose the care that’s best for them. With many of our customers and staff living locally, we wanted to show our support for the community by sponsoring Peasedown Party in the Park. The organisers do a great job every year to put on an event that everyone enjoys and remembers fondly. We’re looking forward to being a part of this year’s event and coming along on the day.”
