We were very excited to hear that the DIY SOS Big Build team were in Kettering this week. We enjoy this programme, it is often a tearjerker, the families that they help are always so deserving and they make a real difference to them.

The team had been calling for help on social media, they were looking for carpenters and printers and someone to drive their telehandler, there was a few of us that fancied having a go at that however we didn’t anticipate them letting us loose in a JCB. Despite this we wanted to help so we decided that if we couldn’t join the team, we’d feed them.

Our manager Sharmaine and our care manager Zoe went down to Dominos and bought a selection of pizzas and then hand delivered them to Nick Knowles along with a message from us all, wishing them luck with the project.

The team were delighted with our gift and messages of goodwill, they took a well-earned break and descended on the pizzas with gusto.

Sharmaine and Zoe came back with some wonderful photographs and spent some time with us recounting their adventure. It was so lovely to be able to help in our own small way and we are all looking forward to watching the episode when it airs.
