During COVID I9 I saw whilst working myself as a Carer within the Health & Social Care. The impact it had made to peoples mental health and their well being, self esteem. As they could not see in person their loved ones or give them a hug which meant so much to them. I decided to bring people back together socially within the local community where I worked after the COVID 19 PANADEMIC by creating and planning different themed and cultural, entertainment events. Which helped them with their anxiety and boosted their self esteem whilst socialising and engaging with others.

Rachel did a fantastic job taking care of my father once he was discharged from a lengthy stay in hospital. She helped him set his physio/exercise routine and his diet, while also doing lots of tasks around the house that he could not yet manage. Would highly recommend.
