Radfield Home Care donates £1,000 to keep clients’ heating on during Amber Weather Warning

Radfield Home Care York, Thirsk & Ryedale made the contribution as part of their Winter Energy Support Initiative.

The Winter Energy Support Initiative is part of Radfield Home Care's efforts to help the most vulnerable clients stay warm during the January cold snap. As energy costs continue to rise, this initiative is designed to ease the financial pressure on those most at risk, ensuring they remain safe and comfortable in their homes.

In response to the drop in temperatures and cold forecast in January, the £1,000 donation will be shared among 20 clients identified by Radfield’s Care Professionals as being most in need. Each client will receive £50 to help with their energy bills during this critical time.

“At Radfield Home Care, we’re committed to supporting our clients in every way possible,” said Ed Gill, Director of Radfield Home Care York, Thirsk & Ryedale. “We understand that the rising cost of living and cold weather can make winter particularly challenging, and this initiative reflects our dedication to caring for our clients’ overall wellbeing.”

Jess Reed, Operations Manager at Radfield Home Care, added: “Our Care Professionals know our clients better than anyone, and their input in identifying those most in need has been invaluable. This initiative is a wonderful example of how we work as a team to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives.”

This winter support initiative is an extension of Radfield’s person-centred approach, which prioritises not only the care needs of its clients but also their overall quality of life. “This is about more than care; it’s about community, compassion, and practical support when it matters most,” added Ed Gill.
