💜 We Love Our Community Companions Service! 💜

Knowing we’re making a difference to people’s lives is exactly why we do what we do. 🌟

From simple things like picking up prescriptions or helping with the shopping, to enjoying a cuppa and a chat - it all makes such a difference. These small moments help people feel valued, independent, and connected, while reducing loneliness and isolation, which so many experience. 💬☕

Our amazing Community Companions are here to bring warmth, care, and friendship to everyday life.

💙 Tomorrow is World Diabetes Day 💙

We’re proud to be doing our part in supporting people living with type 2 diabetes.

Last year, we were commissioned to take part in one of our first major NHS projects - the ground-breaking OCEANIC Study, led by Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. 🌟

The study aims to reverse the lifetime risks of nerve damage (neuropathy) in people with type 2 diabetes - and we couldn’t be prouder to play a role in this important work.

As part of the programme, our team delivers weekly exercise sessions for participants, helping to improve mobility, confidence, and long-term health outcomes. 💪

The brand-new trial, known as OCEANIC, will build on recent evidence that shows that intensive management of blood glucose (sugar) levels can prevent the progression of nerve damage in people with type 1 diabetes.
