A care home has raised £650 through a week of fundraising activities in support of The Care Workers’ Charity.

Berehill House in Whitchurch took part in the Miles That Matter challenge during Care Workers’ Week, raising money for The Care Workers’ Charity.

The challenge was part of a wider campaign by care provider Anavo, which saw directors Jamie Braganza and Chris Stone complete a 260-mile cycling journey between six care homes.

Edward Moore, founder of Anavo, said: "Residents, colleagues, families, local businesses and communities all contributed in ways that worked for them.

"We are extremely grateful to everyone who participated, donated or supported the challenge.

"Fundraising remains open, and we hope people will continue to support us as we work towards our £10,000 target for The Care Workers’ Charity."

During the visit to Berehill House, residents and staff cheered on the cyclists as part of a week-long programme of activities.

The event saw residents, colleagues, families, friends and visiting professionals take part by cycling, walking, donating and encouraging others.

Even visiting paramedics joined in by taking a turn on a bike.

Berehill House has so far raised £650 towards its £1,000 target.
