Appeal - Help beat loneliness
I work for Revitalise, an amazing national charity that provides respite holidays for disabled people and carers. To mark Valentine’s Day, we made a video entitled ‘That’s Amore’. It is an unabashed celebration of love and affection, documenting the heartwarming story of how lovebirds Carl and Tracey met and fell in love at our Southport centre, Sandpipers.
While the pair perfectly encapsulate the romanticism of 14 February, it’s a sobering thought that for some, Valentine’s Day only serves to deepen feelings of loneliness.

We rely on the generosity of individuals to make these breaks possible.
