Our Videos

We’ve recently created some new videos that highlight our mission and the work we do to support carers. We’d love for you to take a few minutes to watch them and get to know us a little better. Our videos feature heartwarming stories from carers who have benefited from our services, as well as insights into the challenges and rewards of caring. We’re proud of the work we do, and we hope our videos inspire you to learn more about our charity and consider supporting our cause.

Cottage and Bath Tour from Clara

Valentine’s Charity Ball
We created this video to share at our Valentine’s Charity Ball. It gives you an insight into the lives of our beneficiaries and the work we do.
Our work focuses on people like Louise and Sarah who are unpaid carers. We have met many. And Sarah Porter’s poem describes the impact of a stay at Kingham Cottage for carers.
We hope you like it.
