Take some time out from your busy pre-Christmas diaries to join us for a glass of fizz on Friday 18th November.

We’ve got 2 entertaining talks lined up – popular  make-up artist Esther Marie shares her tips on Christmas evening glamour and talented local candle maker Annie from On A Wick And A Prayer, on Burning the Wick at Both Ends!

Plus our therapists will be on hand to treat you to  a selection  of mini-treatments  – you could book a relaxing file & polish, an acupressure massage or a hand and arm massage; or try something new like Reiki or  Colour Reiki; you could even book a reading with our clairvoyant!

Tickets cost £8.50 incl. a glass of fizz & nibbles. We’re asking for a donation of £5 per treatment – these can be booked in advance or on the evening.   For more information, to buy tickets and  book treatments visit the Careline office, St Oswald’s Hospital. Alternatively send us a message via our website, Facebook page (Careline Calling) or call us direct on  tel: 01335 210353.  The event  takes place at Clifton Smith Hall, Clifton, Ashbourne DE6 2GJ.

Treat yourself before the Festive Frenzy Begins – bring some friends too!

Join Careline and other local organisations including the Holly Road Supportive Care Centre, Alzheimer’s Society and Age UK to recognise World Alzheimer’s Day at a Dementia Support Showcase on Wednesday 21st September 2016.

Teas and coffees will be available throughout the day, along with a variety of talks and taster sessions.

This  event is free to attend and  takes place at the Heath Community Centre, Holly Rd, Uttoxeter ST14 7DT from 10.30am-3.30pm. For more information call 01889 220 420. EVERYONE WELCOME.

Would you like to help us raise some funds by joining our 100 Club? It couldn’t be easier and means that we can give something back to you, if your lucky number comes up!

You simply pay £24 for the year (standing order, cash or cheque) and we allocate you a number, which will then be entered into our twice yearly draw. You can buy as many numbers as you wish at £24 each. There will be two large cash prizes at each draw, plus several smaller amounts (e.g. 1st prize = £100, 2nd prize = £50, with 6 prizes of £10 ); the remainder of the money is donated to Careline.

Call us on 01335 210353 or e-mail: jo@carelinecalling.org.uk for more information or to join.

Thank you!

Thank you to everyone who put their green tokens into the Careline box in Waitrose, Ashbourne last month – you’ve helped to raise an amazing £600!! Sadly we haven’t been chosen as Sainsbury’s charity partner of the year, but this certainly helps to make up for the disappointment.
