Donation to FoodBank

Our Head Office team decided to pull together and make a donation to the Peterborough FoodBank instead of operating a Secret Santa again for Christmas 2022. We’ve just received confirmation that the funds have been received and are now being put to good use.

Time for a holiday…

As the Summer is upon us, so are the first of our service users’ holidays. Martin and Chris enjoyed a break away visitng various attractions including the National Railway Museum and The Deep. Looks like they both had a fantastic time away!

The importance of classroom based training

At Augusta Care, all of our staff receive a minimum of 1 week in our training room with our Training Manager to receive their mandatory induction training, followed by any other specific and specialised training that may be required. We believe this gives our new starters the best possible start with the company and we’re very proud to have received yet further positive feedback this past week.
