Strength of the Group has expanded ftom 5 CarL'rs to 30 at present which in ciirrent timcs is
vital for those caring for family. We are all ageing Carers which is getting harder as evLry day
passe%.
This vital volunteer work from our Carers relies on small amounts of funding whicb we are
vcry grateful. Looking fonvard to the coming y¢ar to provide the much nccdcd volunteers for
care in the elderly community.
Summary:
The Group had a successful year as we have increased our capacity of Carers which in itself
has come with its own challenges which we have bcen successful in looking after the more
elderly.
