KingsCare exists to provide support when needed, usually following a downturn in someone’s health or a change in circumstances that affects their mental health or direction in life.

Often our support is only needed in the short term eg ensuring that all benefits claims are made, follow up appointments made etc. Once they are better and independent again, practical support ends but not always our connection.

Chris runs our transport service matching up volunteers with patients who need to get to medical appointments, often at very short notice. Many of those people couldn't get to those appointments without a volunteer to take them, often supporting them into the hospital, often waiting a long time to take them back afterwards. We have 3 vehicles that can take wheelchairs and need to be maintained and we have to reimburse the drivers for their costs. Any support than could be given to deliver and grow this invaluable service would be much appreciated. Thank you.
