Help Cheshire Home Summerstrand by Provision of Toiletries for Meet the needs of our 57 disabled persons

Here's a little more info about this opportunity...

Our Mission is to assist people with disabilities in the Nelson Mandela Metro and further afield. We achieve this through providing the conditions necessary for their physical, mental and spiritual well-being. We believe that each person, whatever his/her disability, is a uniquely valuable individual and that people with disabilities should have the personal freedom to pursue their aspirations and take their own place in the wider community of society. Our aim is to offer to those with disabilities: • unquestioning recognition of their full human rights • standards of excellence in all aspects of care from both staff and volunteers • the support of a forward looking and responsive organization, aware of their needs and those of their care givers • the opportunity to take an effective part at every level in running our services • partnership in a continuing endeavor to help others, wherever the need may be, in the field of disability. Situated in Summerstrand Port Elizabeth this Home has been proudly serving the needs of profoundly physically disabled adults since 1975 – a total of 44 years. We are a residential Home that accommodates 57 residents, most of whom rely on a wheelchair for mobility.
