We are delighted to announce that Local Solutions is to become a Real Living Wage employer with immediate effect. This increases the minimum rate of pay across the organisation to £9.90, in line with recommendation from The Real Living Wage Foundation.

Christmas can be a hard time for lots of people and even harder for those who for whatever reason cant spend it with their families. The young people placed with our supported lodgings service all have their own story for how they ended up here and ultimately away from their families. 

Our householders, who like everyone else have a million things to do at Christmas, always go over and above to ensure our young people have the best family Christmas possible.

Our carers centre team have been working so hard planning this special festive delivery they’ll probably be able to fill in for Santa himself in the event Rudolf catches covid. 

To kick off the celebrations, the carers centre held a virtual Christmas Carol Concert on Zoom. We made sure to send song sheets to everyone attending so carers at home could join in. The music was provided by Holistic Harmonies a Liveprool based community interest group who specialise in using creative arts to promote positive wellbeing.
