A community care service has celebrated its relocation to Skipton with a special open day.

Dales Community Care, formerly in Grassington and now at Birkbeck,  Water Street, hosted the event with the intention of getting to know people and explaining the type of care it offers.

A spokesperson said: "We had an exciting day focused on getting to know the local community as we have recently moved offices from our previous location in Grassington. We even held some successful on-the-spot interviews for community carer.

"Members of the public were invited to come by for a chat about what we do, with refreshments supplied. We held a free raffle too, which was won by Emma at Capillus Hair Salon in Skipton.

"To our delight, an old friend and staff member stopped by to meet our new team members. We value everyone in our team, and continue to even when amazing staff have to retire."

Dales Community Care offers home visits, companionship, dementia care, end-of-life care, respite care, a home-from-hospital service, and live-in care.
