Update from Berenice Groves, Chair of the Trustees

We are very pleased that the government restrictions are slowly lifting to cautiously allow care home residents to enjoy outings and to receive family visitors. As you know our first priority at the Charlotte Straker Project has always been the safety and wellbeing of residents, colleagues and visitors.  With this in mind, we carefully follow guidance issued by Central Government, NHS, Public Health England and The Care Quality Commission in all relevant matters.

We are therefore delighted to be able to update our visiting policy in line with the latest Government guidance, to allow nominated family members to enter Charlotte Straker House to visit their loved ones . We know how desperately upsetting it has been not to be able to hold hands with your relatives so we are incredibly relieved that we are allowed to put steps in place to enable this to happen.

Pam and I would like to send our thanks to everyone for their understanding and patience. We are still very well aware of the risks associated with lifting some of these restrictions and you have our promise that we will carefully research all the new advice, and update our policies to ensure that your family members remain safe and well.

As ever, please don’t hesitate to contact the office on 01434 633 999 or click here to email if you would like to discuss any matter in relation to the precautions we are putting in place.

Berenice Groves, Chair of the Trustees
