About this cause

The mission of FACE is to help and support elderly and disabled people who are financially challenged to stay in their own homes longer. FACE accomplishes this by providing services where the residents cannot afford to pay a professional. Services provided are regular garden maintenance, decorating and odd jobs. All jobs are completed on a donation only basis. For many of our clients we are their last resort because they have no family locally who can help them. FACE shows that we cannot only help them with practical services, but also that we care, which in turn brightens the life’s of the people we touch. The charity has been running for 30 years and currently has 120 regular clients that have their gardens attended. We do the decorating during the winter months.

How this cause brings people in the community together

By carrying out garden maintenance and DIY for people who cannot afford to a professional we are able to brighten peoples lives, making their own living space more comfortable and offer the choice for them to stay in their own homes for longer if desired. The work we carry out also alleviates pressure on sheltered housing because we are able to support the people in their own homes.
