Christmas Message from the MD 2025

As another year draws to its close, our hearts are full of both reflection and gratitude. We pause to hold close in our thoughts those we have lost, especially those who left us this year , whose presence we still feel, and whose memories we carry with us always. Though they are no longer by our side, the impact they made on our lives and our community lives on.

We also take time to celebrate the countless small victories that mark each day in our work. Every moment of comfort offered, every hand held, every smile shared, these are not trivial achievements. They are powerful testaments to the extraordinary commitment of our Care Work workforce and operations staff, who pour their hearts into their roles 365 days a year. Their dedication is the foundation of everything we do.

Looking back, we’ve navigated both joyful milestones and difficult challenges, moments we cannot revisit, but from which we have grown. It brings me back to a truth that guides us all: “Kindness is something the blind can see and the deaf can hear.” In a world where connections can feel fragile, and loneliness touches people of every generation, this principle has never been more vital. We often chase markers of success measured in what we gain, yet true meaning is found in how we lift up those around us.

This festive season, as some gather with loved ones in joy, others may be carrying heavy burdens we cannot see, be they colleagues, clients, neighbors, or strangers we pass in the street. Let us not let the rush of the season dim our humanity.

The greatest gift we can give is not wrapped in paper, it is the gift of connection. A warm greeting, a helping hand, or simply taking a moment to listen can light up a life that feels hidden in shadow.

I am so proud of every member of our Care 2 U family. Your compassion transforms lives, and your hard work builds the kind of community we all aspire to be part of. Let us carry these successes , big and small, forward as beacons of hope into the year to come.

Merry Christmas to each and every one of you, and warm wishes for a peaceful, bright New Year.

A cold weather health alert is in place from 23rd to 29th December across the West Midlands. The very young, older people and those with chronic health conditions are more at risk of negative health impacts associated with cold weather. Individuals experiencing homelessness are also especially at risk during this period.


Our dedicated Rough Sleepers Team have been completing outreach work to identify homeless individuals and provide guidance and shelter as needed during the current cold weather.

Cold weather, particularly for older people can increase the risk of heart attacks and strokes, breathing problems, flu, as well as increasing the risk of accidents.

As temperatures drop, it is recommended to keep your home heated to at least 18 degrees in the rooms your regularly use (e.g. living room and bedroom) and to wear a number of thin layers of clothing (rather than one thick layer).

Please check in on people who may be older or more vulnerable, and ensure they have enough food and medication, and are up to date with their winter vaccinations. If you or someone you know needs medical help, please contact your local pharmacist, GP or if it’s urgent, contact NHS 111. In life threatening situations, dial 999.

Getting the help you need can help you stay well when it is cold. Warm spaces are open and welcoming to anyone across Walsall who need somewhere to meet other people and get support.
There are also services that can support you with advice about your fuel bills and payments, or heating and insulation measures that you may be eligible for.

💓 Take 15 Minutes to Save a Life – Learn CPR 💓
At Care 2 U, we believe that everyone has the power to make a difference. Knowing how to perform CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) could save a life when every second counts.
When cardiac arrest occurs, the heart stops pumping blood and oxygen around the body — and without immediate CPR, the chances of survival drop sharply. CPR helps keep the blood flowing until professional medical help arrives, giving someone a greater chance of recovery.
Through the British Heart Foundation’s RevivR campaign, you can learn CPR in just 15 minutes — completely free and online. This quick and easy course gives you the skills and confidence to act in an emergency and potentially save a life.
🎥 Start learning today:

At Care 2 U, we’re proud to support initiatives that strengthen community safety and empower individuals to care for one another.

Without , your chance of dying dramatically increases after cardiac arrest. By learning CPR, you can become a hero and save someone else's life. Minutes ...
