September Promotion

World Alzheimer’s Month – September 2016

To raise awareness of World Alzheimer’s Month, the official marketing materials from http://www.worldalzmonth.org/en will be shown on the reception screen at Thingwall Hall and Lisieux Hall. Staff will be signposted to resources through the website and intranet.

Jeans for Genes Day

Brothers of Charity Services will be taking part in Jeans for Genes Day 2016 which takes place on Friday 23rd September.

We will be making a donation of £1 each to wear jeans on the day. Collection boxes for donations will be left at Thingwall Hall and Lisieux Hall reception.

1 in 25 children inherit a genetic disorder through their genes which makes their life very difficult. By pulling on a pair of jeans, we will be helping to fund the vital care and support services that transform their lives.

To find out more information about Jeans for Genes and what they do visit their website at; www.jeansforgenes.org.
