⭐ MEET THE TEAM ⭐

Meet Julie our Urgent Care Mobile Responder.

"I previously worked for Wiltshire Police and Wiltshire Probation Service, after 25 years in these services I retired. At this point I looked at what I enjoyed most throughout my working life and decided that I enjoyed working with people and had spent some time caring for others as a Marie Curie Nurse and as a Care Assistant in a nursing home. The Urgent Care and Telecare Response service seemed to offer me a new direction but something that brought some of my experience together with an employer that I had worked with in various areas over the years in safeguarding and within the community. I have worked in this role for about 2 months now, and it's an interesting role where I am meeting lots of people and supporting them in their own homes, which I believe is the best place people can be if this is possible.

This is also important to me as I care for my own elderly mother who lives with me and needs a little bit of support from day to day. The hours I do fit well with my home and work life. I have seven grandchildren who I love and adore, I spend some time with them each week, which is amazing and keeps me on my toes! Early mornings and evenings are spent walking my 18month old Labrador “Reggie” who brings a lot of sunshine and energy into my days"

⭐ National Give Something Away Day ⭐

National Give Something Away Day takes place on the 15th of July, the day encourages generosity and selflessness, inspiring people to give away items, time, or acts of kindness to others. It’s a wonderful opportunity to declutter, share with those in need, and spread joy within your community.

Participating in National Give Something Away Day is simple and rewarding. The day encourages everyone to look around their homes and identify items that are no longer needed but could be useful to others. From clothing and books to toys and household goods, there are many things that can be given away to make a difference in someone else’s life. You can donate items to local charities, shelters, or community centres. Alternatively, consider giving your time by volunteering at a local organisation, helping a neighbour with chores, or simply offering a kind gesture to brighten someone’s day.

⭐ MEET THE TEAM ⭐

My names Ady! Or Adrian when I'm in trouble!

I have had a varied career, including various roles in security and water proofing bridges. I became a Mobile Responder around seven years ago, I was completely fed up with my security job and my wife was working for Medvivo and told me that they were looking for Mobile Responders! So I went for it and the rest is history 😊

I am still enjoying my role and believe I have settled in well at Wiltshire Council. My hobbies include playing snooker, playing guitar, spending time with my lovely wife and dogs and I also love going to gigs🤘

🤩 SOCIAL MEDIA DAY 🤩

Social Media Day is observed annually on June 30. In its short life, social media has redefined how people interact, communicate, and share with family, friends, and the world.

How to celebrate Social Media Day:

⭐ You were already going to post on your favourite social media platform, so do something unique today. Give someone props, or share a friend’s post.
⭐ Use one of your accounts to send a private message to at least two people you haven’t contacted in a while.
⭐ Reflect on your social media habits. Make sure that you’re getting the most out of your social media, not that it’s getting the most out of you.
