Thank you TPP Recruitment for sharing this testimonial from one of our temp colleagues! This is what it's like to be part of the Carers Network team 💚
At TPP, we believe every worker should have a voice, and we work hard to ensure that all year round. But with National Inclusion Week here, we wanted to give it extra attention and focus on something special - our valued temp workers! It's important to us to recognise the incredible efforts of our temp workers and show them how much they are appreciated. This National Inclusion Week, we're shining a spotlight on their contributions and making sure they feel valued, respected, and part of the team as well. Here's a testimonial from one of our temp workers during their time at Carers Network. At TPP, inclusivity isn't just for one week—it's something we're committed to year-round. And what better way to celebrate than by highlighting the welcoming, inclusive environments our clients create for temporary staff! That's what real impact looks like. We'd love to hear your stories too! Have you ever had an experience where you truly felt included? #NationalInclusionWeek #NIW2024 #Inclusion

“There are many challenges as a carer, but also many blessings. Being able to care for my mum is the thing I’m most proud of.” This #CarersWeek, we want carers’ voices to be heard, so we had a chat with local carer Carmel – who looked after her mum for 6 and a half years, and now cares for her brother – about what it’s like to be a carer. Carmel thinks the main issue as a carer is the lack of recognition. Carers need to be recognised for the difficulties they are experiencing, respected for all they are doing, provided with information, and given the support they need to care safely. #CarersNetwork #NoOneShouldCareAlone #casestudy #CarersWeek2024 #recognition #UnpaidCarers #carers #caring
