Join us and light a #candleforcare tonight

Scottish Care encourages you to join us in the #candleforcare movement.

Every Tuesday, we will light a candle at 7pm in remembrance of all those who have lost their lives to Covid-19 in our care homes, hospitals and communities.

We will also be doing this to recognise all the dedicated key workers, especially those in the social care sector. This is an opportunity to thank them for working tirelessly to provide compassion care during these challenging times.

The need to provide recognition to this workforce is important as highlighted in the latest blog by our CEO, Dr Donald Macaskill- Coronavirus exhaustion – upholding the mental health of the care sector which details the physical and mental exhaustion experienced by care workers, managers and providers across Scotland.  

Please join us in lighting a #candleforcare tonight.
