STEVENSON APPLAUDS FUNDING FOR BANFF & BUCHAN CARE PROJECT

Banff & Buchan MSP Stewart Stevenson has welcomed the announcement that Deveron Care Services (DCS) will receive a grant of £40,266 from the Big Lottery Fund. The money will fund the Deveron Care and Carers Centre, which will provide a secure base and long term sustainability for DCS, to continue providing care at home services for elderly, infirm and disabled adults.

Through the purchase of a former doctors surgery, this one-year project will enable DCS to retain administrative and training premises in the centre of Banff and gradually expand care services to a wider geographical area and deliver to other disadvantaged community members

Commenting, Mr Stevenson said:

“This is excellent news for Deveron Care Services and the many local residents that they support. The important work that they do has a significant impact on the lives of many of Banff & Buchan’s most vulnerable residents, and I am delighted that they will now be able to expand their efforts thanks to this funding.

“The support that Deveron Care Services provides to families and unpaid carers is invaluable, and this fact has clearly been recognised with this funding.

“I am sure that everyone involved in making this bid a success will be immensely proud of their efforts and I am sure that everyone in the community will share my pleasure upon hearing of their success.”
