Amazing Achievement
Pineapple Care Services Ltd are proud to announce our Learning Disability students participated in a charity walk of 20 miles, throughout the whole of June to raise money for Great Ormond Street Hospital. This was a huge achievement for our Learning Disability Students, as some of them are living with high anxieties and struggle leaving the home, one student is blind, other students have a range of disabilities from being non-verbal, living with cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and autism.
The walk was opened by Ian Gleadell, Commissioning Manager of Learning Disabilities and Autism for Thurrock Council and Lavena Shovlar Pineapple Care’s Managing Director. The students made a great start walking just under a mile on the first day and have continued throughout the month.
This is a huge achievement for those students, who collected sponsorships and managed to raise an amazing £1196.00 including a donation of £200 from Pineapple Care to make a difference to people’s lives.
The Learning Disabilities Team Leader – Lucy Champion provided all the information to our students giving them the option to join in and had a great response.
At Pineapple Care we strive hard to provide social inclusion and independence for our students with great success.
Thank you to Lucy and the team for the support provided to the students throughout the walk, and a massive
congratulations to all the students who participated. 
Lovely Donation
Pineapple Care are proud to have donated a Weplay pedal roller to Friends of Treetops.
Friends of Treetops have kindly allowed Pineapple Care to attend their school fete on the 15th of July and as a thank you, Pineapple Care donated the pedal roller, which was a required piece of equipment for the school.
The Pedal Roller is a wonderful balancing and mobility tool that works like an ordinary bicycle. Children can pedal the Roller to move forward or backward. They can press down on the peddles and be jet propelled. The faster you peddle the faster you move. The pedal roller develops balance and coordination in a fun, challenging way.
Friends of Treetops treasurer Lisa accepted the gift from Lavena Shovlar, company director at Pineapple Care on Monday the 26th of June.
