The lovely lady behind Truly Scrumptious held an ‘Abba Night’ in March and raised an amazing £787 for Careline!!

We would like to say a huge thank you for choosing Careline as one of your two chosen charities. It means so much to us and will help us continue to call those who are lonely and isolated.

THANK YOU!! from Carolyn, Hannah and all at Careline

We held our Spring Coffee Morning last week and raised a wonderful £376.50. Thank you to everyone who purchased raffle tickets and popped in for a coffee and a chat.

Many thanks to Annie Maudling from On A Wick & A Prayer for donating some amazing raffle prizes and our trustee John Leicester who donated wine and chocolates. And to our amazing volunteers who helped on the day.

Also, a big thank you to Mayor Anthony Bates and High Sheriff, Ian Morgan, who also attended to support Careline.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the last year. We appreciate you so much – without you, we wouldn’t be able to reach as many lonely, isolated and vulnerable people.

We would like to wish you all a Happy New Year! From Carolyn, Hannah, trustees, volunteers and members 🩵🧡🩷💚

Thank you so much for all your support over the last year. We are so very grateful for every donation, raffle ticket bought, event attended, likes, comments and shares on social media. It means so much to our small, independent charity.

We would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year.

From Carolyn, Hannah, trustees, volunteers and members. 🩵🧡🩷💚

We are thrilled to announce that Careline Calling received an amazing £1000 grant, certificate and award, at the Derbyshire Freemasonry Community Awards last night.

It was a beautiful evening listening to all the incredible work that is being carried out throughout Derbyshire.

We were delighted to reconnect with Liz Fothergill, Careline’s Patron, and meet the new High Sheriff, Theresa Peltier.

Thank you again so much to Freemasonary Derbyshire and to the Masonic Lodges of Ashbourne, who nominated us for this award, we are truly grateful for your support and generosity.

Hannah, Carolyn, The Trustees, Volunteers and Members at Careline.

We want to say a huge thank you to Pat Walker, one of our lovely volunteers, who raised an amazing £595 for Careline during her 70th birthday party instead of receiving gifts. We are extremely grateful to Pat for choosing Careline and for continuing to support us as well as her friends and family for being so generous.

Thank you to our volunteers and everyone who came by for a sing-song and a mince pie – it was lovely to see you.
