CPBF supports care worker following road accident

Date of article: 18-Apr-10

In March 2010, the charity received an application from SW, a 55 year old care professional, who has worked in the independant sector since 1997.

Tragically, she was involved in a road traffic accident in January 2010 - the trauma of which resulted in SW suffering from a speech impairment due to trauma.

This meant that since this date she has been unable to work and as her employer did not provide sick pay, the charity has provided a crisis grant to prevent SW getting into debt, whilst she is being treated and able to return to work.
