Hi. I’m Niki. I’ve worked for Brandon for over 20 years, and recently moved into an acting locality manager role in the Gloucestershire area. When I took on my new position, I was asked to think about how we could improve the appearance of the front of the house I was working in, to make it feel more homely and attractive for the people supported there. It’s important that houses feel like a home, and gardens are an important part of that.

The team can never get enough of shopping second hand and this year, we’re joining in with Sustainable Fashion Week - an event we are proud to be a part of, and one that we hope will contribute to a better way of shopping.

Our Chief Executive, Sue Porto, shares her views on yesterday's announcement on funding and calls for the Government to urgently reconsider their approach in relation to social care.
