Sunderland’s Care Workers of the Month – August 2025: A Wedding to Remember
At Vestra Homecare, our care doesn’t stop at the front door, we go the extra mile to make unforgettable moments happen.
We’ve supported Doris and Leslie for almost a year, but just weeks before their grandson’s wedding, Leslie was admitted to hospital. The family feared he’d miss the big day.
That’s when our amazing care workers, Bev and Ashleigh, stepped in. With planning, teamwork, and a lot of heart, they turned worry into joy and made the impossible possible…
On the wedding morning, they helped Doris get ready and picked Leslie up from hospital so he could proudly watch his grandson say “I do,”. Bev even packed a lunch for Doris and Leslie, making sure they wouldn’t go hungry before the celebrations began.
And their support didn’t stop there. They stayed by the couple’s side throughout the day, ready for whatever was needed. From ensuring Leslie returned safely to hospital, to sharing in a surprise wedding meal with Doris at her home, arranged by the family, Bev and Ashleigh were there every step of the way.
They transformed what could have been a difficult day into one filled with love, comfort, and memories the family will cherish forever.
The groom, Adam, summed up the family’s appreciation:
“You don’t know how much your kindness has meant to us all. To have us all together to celebrate is amazing, we didn’t think it would happen.”
We couldn’t be prouder of Bev and Ashleigh, who embody what Vestra Homecare is all about – delivering bespoke care with flexibility, compassion, and a focus on making every moment matter.
And this is exactly why Bev and Ashleigh are taking the joint crown as Sunderland’s Care Workers of the Month for August 2025!
