Chaseley donates to Eastbourne Foodbank

On 1st November we delivered the food donations we had collected as part of our harvest festival to Eastbourne Foodbank.

We had the pleasure of meeting Mark, Pauline, Juliet and the team who shared with us more about the amazing work they do here in Eastbourne.  We were all surprised to hear that just this morning they had given out a staggering 1,505kg of food.

We also learnt that they offer ‘more than food’, they also offer:

💚 Toiletries

💚 Cleaning products, including washing powder/tablets

💚 Baby items, including moses basket gift bundles

💚 Baby clothing

💚 Pet Food

💚 Christmas presents for clients and their children

We can honestly say we were blown away by what they do and just how many people they support within our local community. With this in mind we have decided to keep our Foodbank donation box in Reception, so that we can continue to support them, so feel free to drop any donations in to us.

Please give their social media pages a like, check out their website for up to date information on what items are currently needed and join us in supporting this charity and our local community.

Why fundraise for Chaseley?

Chaseley is an independent, charity-owned nursing home and our main source of funding comes from residents’ fees, which cover the cost of their care package and contributes to the daily running costs of the home.  Various commissioning bodies fund the majority of resident care packages and we have just 5% surplus to fund all our additional costs, including the upkeep of our beautiful building, upgrading our equipment, and to provide the extra social and recreational activities and services that enhance the comfort and well-being of our residents, which is why we rely on donations and fundraising.

Fundraising Projects for 2023

2023 sees us embark on the second year of our 15 year plan enabling us to modernise, update and refresh our Chaseley home.  The planned works will ensure we can continue to deliver the best care possible to our residents for the next 75 years.

During 2023 we are looking to raise funds that will help us to complete the following:

  • Repair the final lift within the home
  • Repair and refresh 21 windows around our home
  • Repair some of the upper skylights
  • Replace some of the flooring
  • Complete the upgrade of all our bathroom facilities

The Chaseley building is a complicated one that has been altered and extended over many years and with a property of this size and complexity it is important to future plan any building works, including maintenance, repairs and improvements.  With your help, we are sure that throughout 2023 we will be able to raise the funds needed and ensure our residents continue to receive the excellent care they require, whilst living in a first class home that they deserve.
