ForeverCare receives ‘Shared Value Award’ for support of homelessness charity

 

ForeverCare has been presented with a Shared Value Award by local homelessness charity Oasis Community Housing, at its flagship Black &
Gold Ball fundraiser on Friday (19 May).

 

The Award is in recognition of the support the charity has received over the past 12 months from ForeverCare and celebrates the success of the corporate partnership. Oasis Community Housing’s Chief Executive, David Smith, said:

 

“Our Shared Value Awards recognise those businesses that go above and beyond in support of our charity. Every year we deliver help, housing and, moreover, a place people feel they belong through our drop-ins, emergency
accommodation and supported accommodation projects.

 

“We could not deliver what we do without the generous support of our valued corporate partners and the dedicated individuals within these businesses.”

 

For almost 40 years, Oasis Community Housing has been supporting people facing homelessness across North East England and South London. The charity works to address both immediate needs and the root causes of homelessness through its Basis crisis services; its Home 24/7 supported accommodations for young men, women, and mothers with babies; its Aspire unemployment support and
financial skills training; and Empower programme for women escaping domestic abuse.

 

The charity’s Patron, the BBC’s Reverend Canon Kate Bottley, presented ForeverCare with its Shared Value Award at Hilton Newcastle
Gateshead on Friday. Commenting on receiving the Award, Neville Rodgers from ForeverCare said: “ForeverCare prides itself on giving back to the community and through Oasis we have been able to do this and donate to a worthy cause.”

 

“We are very proud to have received this award as it emphasises our intent to give back to the community and allows us to get our young people in our care involved in important charity work”
