Our Business Development Manager, Tarrah Lewis, had a busy afternoon discovering agencies and services on behalf of our clients at Shropshire Business Festival at theTelford International Centre
Finding the right businesses and organisations to support our vulnerable and disabled clients on our doorstep here in Shropshire is so important so today's festival was the perfect place to do that. ThankShropshire Festivalsivals for putting on another epic event.
And Tarrah even managed to squeeze in an interview BBC Shropshireshire which will be aired throughout the day tomorrow, while also catching up with friends Lingen Davies Cancer SupportpportWenlock WaterWater
We’re thrilled to receive a £19,000 core funding grant from Severn Trent to help fund our services for the next 12 months!
This will allow us to continue our work providing one to one advocacy to disabled and vulnerable people within their own homes across Shropshire.

Run in London, change lives in Shropshire. 🏃🏅
The London Marathon is one of the world’s most inspiring races, and in 2027, you could run it for our Oswestry based advocacy charity - Shropshire PCAS.
Every pound you raise will help provide free, independent advocacy to people facing safeguarding concerns, housing issues, mental health challenges and complex social care systems in your community.
If you are interested in running for us, we’d love to hear from you. Email [email protected] and tell us why you should be our lucky runner!
I have emailed you 😊
Helen surely you can do this! 🤣
We always say our team members would do anything for our charity and our clients! But our wonderful Business Development Manager, Tarrah, is taking it to a new level - by walking over fire! 🔥🔥🔥
Tarrah will be walking over fire at Official Whittington Castle on March 28th from 4pm to 9pm to help us to keep our doors open a little while longer.
It's going to be a fun (maybe not for Tarrah!) family event with firelight, live music and a medieval atmosphere with archery and axe throwing and of course food and drink.
The money raised will help our vulnerable and disabled clients receive our free, independent advocacy in their own homes. Our clients are people who have no one else to stand with them when life’s challenges get complicated.
Your sponsorship helps keep our vital service running and makes a real difference to people’s lives. Please give what you can!

You are mad Tarrah but good luck!
What is the role of an advocate at Shropshire PCAS?
Well... how long have you got? We give them a voice and that voice comes in so many different ways.
Our deputy manager and independent advocate, Glenda, helped a client get his lifeline back - his assistive technology doorbell.
Glenda said: "This is a gentleman who is hard of hearing and his assistive technology doorbell had stopped working. I contacted Shropshire Council to visit him to replace it, as it is such a lifeline to him.
"The unit lights up when someone rings the doorbell, and attracts his attention – otherwise, he misses people."
One phone call to the right people seems a simple task but for our clients it might be considered impossible.
Thanks Jennifer.
Well done 👏 xx
