Care home searches for Bristol’s local heroes

A new care home in Bristol is asking the community to nominate local heroes who could be rewarded with a cash prize.

Care UK’s Ladden View on Fletcher Road, which is set to open its doors this September, is searching for local people or organisations who go above and beyond for their community, friends or family, and have a positive impact on the local area.

The worthy winner of the competition will receive £300 and be presented with the funds at the care home’s grand launch event. There will also be a second and third prizes of £150 and £50.

Sarah Daly, Home Manager at Ladden View, said: “Everyone has an unsung hero in their life – the person who organises everything, is always there for whoever needs them and never shies away from lending a helping hand.

“Here at Ladden View, we want to say thank you to those people who consistently go above and beyond – whether they’re a volunteer at a local charity, a leader at a community group or simply a friend who always goes the extra mile.

“We’re inviting locals to share their story, so we can say thank you with a well-deserved treat - we can’t wait to read lots of heart-warming stories!”

To nominate a local hero, visit careuk.com/care-homes/ladden-view-yate/local-hero-competition  before 11:59pm on Monday 30^th September 2024 and explain in 100-400 words why they deserve to be rewarded.

Ladden View will be a state-of the-art care home providing full-time residential and dementia care, as well as short-term respite care. Designed to enable residents to live enjoyable and fulfilling lives, the home will have its very own cinema, hair salon and café, along plenty of space – both indoors and out – for relaxation and recreation.
