The care home visited Create Bolton with two of their residents to deliver the Cheque and celebrate with them at being awarded the grant.

This charity is so important to the community of Bolton as it helps so many people who need kindness and support, a bit of time out or simply to socialise and get in touch with their Creative side.
“We’re making our homes as safe as possible and will ensure that all new residents and staff are vaccinated before moving in or working in our homes. Please do give us a call on 01925 755363 if you are looking for care or need any further help.”
