AWARD-WINNING Cheshire homecare and supported living care provider Compassionate Care Group marked its 10th anniversary with a staff raffle and support for a local charity.

The company, based in Ashley, held a staff raffle throughout October and November, with a first prize of £1,000.

All money raised was matched by the company and donated to Wood Street Mission, a Manchester-based charity nominated by support worker Deborah Morley, who was the winner of the raffle.

Wood Street Mission supports children and families living on a low income in Manchester and Salford.

As well as offering practical help, the charity also provides struggling families with children's clothes, bedding, baby equipment, toys and books.

In the run-up to Christmas, the charity has also been busy collecting new toys, gifts and selection boxes for local children in need.

Amanda Stoneham, Compassionate Care's chief executive, said: "Having personally been a recipient of such charities during my childhood, it means a lot to me be able to support the project and give back.

"The team at Wood Street works tirelessly all year round, not just at Christmas, and has such a huge positive impact on so many lives".

Compassionate Care also plans to mark its special anniversary with employees at a summer ball later this year.

The company now employ 75 carers and 60 support workers and 20 office-based staff.

It provides in-home care and companionship to more than 180 vulnerable adults of all ages across Cheshire, Greater Manchester and Derbyshire.
