A Southport couple have called in to the Revitalise Sandpipers centre in Southport to provide Christmas presents for guests and staff. 

Sue and Jon Howard, well known for running Howards DIY in Ainsdale, showed their generosity for people at the centre for the second successive year. 

The Revitalise Sandpipers centre on Fairway in Southport, with beautiful views overlooking the Marine Lake, provides respite care in a holiday setting for disabled people and carers. 

Friends of Sandpipers community champion Brenda Porter said: “Friends of Sandpipers And Revitalise Sandpipers would like to say a massive thank you to Sue and Jon Howard from Ainsdale who for the second year running  provided guests and staff with  special Christmas presents.

“The Ainsdale couple who are well known in the area as having run Howard’s DIY which is now closed and for their support of Ainsdale Village met with Sandpiper Deputy Manager Dave and presented the beautifully wrapped gifts which will be distributed on Christmas Day.

“Sandpipers provides that proper holiday experience to those with disabilities,

some severe, and their carers while also ensuring  appropriate 24 hour expert care in a safe and attractive environment.

“Sue and Jon’s gifts were gratefully received and until Christmas Day will be put around Sandpipers’ large Christmas tree in their dining room which due to the current situation was not available to visit on the day.

“Again both Revitalise and Friends of Sandpipers say thank you to Sue and Jon. What a lovely caring thing to do.”

Revitalise has been providing respite care for disabled people and carers for over 50 years.

The organisation was founded in 1963 as the Winged Fellowship Trust (WFT). In 2004 WFT became Vitalise and in 2014 Vitalise became Revitalise.

Revitalise currently runs three holiday centres Southport, in Chigwell in Essex and in Southampton.

It currently provides nearly 5,000 breaks each year, but this number represents just 1% of those who would benefit from the charity’s services. The need for high quality respite breaks like those provided by Revitalise has never been higher.

    The very root of your writing whilst appearing agreeable at first, did not work properly with me after some time. Someplace within the paragraphs you actually were able to make me a believer but only for a while. I nevertheless have got a problem with your jumps in assumptions and you might do well to help fill in all those breaks. In the event you actually can accomplish that, I will certainly be fascinated.
