LCF CARE
Care is everyone’s responsibility
Looking after each other is at the heart of community
The most efficient and effective way we look after others is within our small communities, as friends. Find a community.
We also have a safety net of care volunteers to help those who fall outside of a small community and as a back up to our small communities. With acute and urgent issues escalated to senior leadership.
For individuals with more complex needs we signpost as appropriate.

Supporting our Community
Be cautious when accepting work
to be done in your home.
A good tradesperson is hard to find and we shouldn’t just trust a person simply because we know them from the church. We don’t want anyone to find themselves in a difficult situation and recommend that you:
Don’t accept for a person to carry out work (for free or paid for) without first taking up references from a trusted source (you can also use www.checkatrade.com).
Don’t handover money before work is completed.
Don’t give anyone your debit card.
It is advisable to obtain 3 quotes before deciding who to instruct to ensure that they have been quoted a reasonable price for the work. Useful links:
