Crisis in caring?
Nurses have recently been promised a pay increase, but will it be enough to attract young people into the caring professions ...?
Pilgrim Homes is a Christian charity founded in 1807. Inspired by teachings from the book of Job (Job 29.12-13), a group of young people began a work by giving small pensions to elderly Christians living in appalling poverty. That work has grown over two centuries into a network of residential provision that ranges from sheltered accommodation through to nursing care. The guiding force of every Pilgrim Home, and the rock upon which it stands is the Lord Jesus Christ. It strives to provide spiritual as well as physical and emotional support to all its residents and, in so doing, to glorify the Lord.
