To end what has been another great week at Tweed Connections we'd like to say a huge thank you to Callum and his friends who conquered the Lake District 6 Peaks at the end of May and very generously donated their sponsor money to our Clients Fund. They raised an amazing £320.

It looked like you had a wonderful time and that you thought to fundraise for us.
Thank you so much!

Our Clients Fund is used to treat our clients to days out, coffees and ice creams. The donation will make a big difference, thank you again!

The theme of this year's Carer's Week is 'Building Carer Friendly Communities'. With that in mind we'd like to acknowledge and express gratitude to two of the fantastic local support groups we have:

⭐️Berwick and Borders Carers Support who offer a fortnightly peer support group and activities throughout the year

https://www.facebook.com/share/1EAbSoz5T3/

⭐️The Borders Carers Centre who offer peer support, training and activities

https://www.facebook.com/share/1DJQkqEpNW/

Both groups offer invaluable support, advice and friendship to our local Carer community. Please give them a follow!

Thank you for everything you do.

Did you know that over 400 people in Berwick care for their loved ones over 50 hours per week?

This is one of the reasons why we, at Tweed Connections, support Carers Week (8-14 June), an annual event which brings awareness to the vast number of unpaid carers in the UK and the challenges they face.

We hope that by providing day care for your elderly relatives we are able to ease the burden a little and provide time for much needed respite.

If you need some advice, or would be interested in arranging day care, please do not hesitate to contact us on 07563 716752 or at [email protected]

At Tweed Connections all of our activities are designed to maintain and improve our clients' physical and cognitive wellbeing, as well as making sure everyone has fun! It's great to see the difference this is making to our clients, and hopefully making things a little easier for their families and carers.

If you would like to join us, or know someone who would benefit from our service.
please give us a call on 07563 716752 or email us at [email protected]

Yesterday we celebrated our First Birthday with some of our clients and their families, we all had a great day and the room was filled with so much love. It was a lovely atmosphere.

I must say a few thank yous, the first one goes to my staff team for all your hard work and always going the extra mile to make sure everyone is happy. And to the team at Northern View for allowing us to use the function room and for our lovely lunches during the week.

The second is for the kind donations towards our raffle. We need to thank:
The Beauty Barn, Pot a Doodle Do, The Maltings Cinema, Northern Edge Coffee, Asda, Perfectly Good Potatoes and all the family members who sent in prizes.

The third thanks goes out to Fiona for doing our lovely buffet, Zoe for making our delicious cake, Phil and Kath for singing and keeping us entertained, and to Emma at Happy Spots Crafts for our beautiful mural of Berwick.

We are beyond grateful to you all for the support we have received over the past 12 months.
