Startright sponsor Bushwood Services

CareHomeOpenWeek is upon us and Bushwood Service in Weoley Castle, Birmingham have been out fundraising in the sun and engaging with the local community.

The staff completed a sponsored event where they were tasked with finding their way back to their service from a mystery location, collecting donations along the way.
The mystery location turned out to be the car park of Walsall Football Club and staff members Richard, Hinda, Danielle, Morgan and Juliette ended up walking a total of 24’212 steps in 4½ hrs to get back to Bushwood just in time for their afternoon shift 😊
Bushwood has very strong ties to their local community and several local businesses supported the plucky staff team with Startright Training donating £100, the local ASDA donating drinks and snacks and the nearby Hairdressers very generously donating the contents of their ‘Tip Jar’. Along the way members of the public and local businesses also donated resulting in over £1000 being raised for a state-of-the-art Sensory Room.
Manager Karen Neville was clearly overjoyed, stating “Well done to the staff team. This is the second year we’ve been fundraising during Care Home Open Week and I’m so proud of everything the staff and residents have achieved, they’re amazing!!”
