Pineapple Care develops great reputation across Thurrock

On the 13th June 2019 Pineapple Care Services held a cupcake day for the Alzheimer’s Society. I am pleased to say collectively with the cupcake sales and the raffle tickets we raised £162.93, Pineapple Care would like to say a massive thank you to Debbie Hobby who organised the event. Also, we would like to say a congratulations to the lucky winner of the raffle who won a Spa Day for two courtesy of Format Scaffolding Services. Alzheimer’s and dementia effect so many people, it is great to know how many of you supported us in raising money for this cause.

Pineapple Care Services LTD are hosting a cupcake day for Alzheimer’s Society on 13th June 2019.

In the average time it takes to bake a batch of cupcakes, six people in the UK will develop dementia. It is now the leading cause of death in England and Wales overtaking both cancer and heart disease. By supporting Pineapple Care’s Cupcake Day we can help raise money to fund pioneering research, crucial support services and vital care. Until the day a cure is found Alzheimer’s Society can continue to be there for anyone affected by dementia – wherever they are, whatever they’re going through.

Everyone is welcome to come along to enjoy some lovely cupcakes made by our office staff. We hope to see you all there.

Team Pineapple.

We are pleased to announce that Pineapple Care will be moving into our new office on the 1st June 2018. The new offices will create a new training room, plus 2 further home care offices where staff will be able to enjoy the open door policy. We have had a very successful few months with staff receiving lovely compliments from our service user.
