The Challenge of the Coronavirus Crisis

There is no doubt that the challenge of the Coronavirus has changed the world significantly and particularly the lives of those who are most vulnerable, the older people who live in our communities.

Regenerate-RISE has dedicated two trees outside the Platt Centre to all the key workers who have committed their time to helping those with Covid-19 or at risk of Covid-19.  Cards are hung on the tree with the photographs of people who have worked hard to improve the lives of those who are currently suffering.  If you would like to add someone you know to our tree, then please bring a photograph to the Centre and we will add them to the tree.  At night time rainbow lights are switched on to remind us all of the care and love that each key worker gives to their family, friends and patients.

In the midst of this pandemic, Regenerate-RISE would like to purchase the Platt Centre in order that we can have a secure base to continue our work and build our new 10 bed Reablement Unit.  We have been given the deadline of 30 September by which to exchange contracts and together all involved are doing their best to achieve this deadline.
