As 2025 draws to a close, we want to pause — just for a moment — to say thank you from the very deepest place. Because St Margaret’s Homecare isn’t bricks, policies or rotas… it’s people. Incredible, compassionate people who show up every single day with kindness, patience and heart.

This year, we’re so proud to celebrate some truly remarkable milestones within our teams — years filled with dedication, care, and life-changing support for our clients and their families.
