December in K & M Communities is Caring month.
We’ve all had to care at some point in in our lives, haven’t we?
Babies, children, grandparents or even the family dog!
Caring is such an important part of life. It’s simply part of being human. Carers are holding families together, enabling loved ones to get the most out of life, making an enormous contribution to society and saving the economy billions of pounds.
Yet many of us are stretched to the limit – juggling care with work and family life, or even struggling with poor health ourselves. We often find it difficult to make ends meet if we’re unable to work or if we’ve reduced our working hours to care.
December in K & M Communities is Caring month.
We hope to share with you the stories of carers in our communities. We would also ask you to think about the carers in your community – Do you know someone who does lots but receives little recognition? Who is a hidden treasure, giving up their time to care? Who deserves a little treat for all they do for others?
If you know someone in your community who fits this bill, please let us know through our Facebook page who they are and why they deserve a special Christmas treat from K and M Communities. We’ll be offering a prize . . .
