Friends recommended Cotswold Friends, and I’m delighted that I got in touch with the organisation.

A short while before having a full hip replacement operation, I contacted Cotswold Friends to ask about the services it offers, and to see whether one or more of them might be available in the weeks immediately following the operation when my mobility would be severely limited for a little while.

Cotswold Friends’ Support Assistance was invaluable on returning home from hospital.

And then Cotswold Friends’ Transport Assistance was also invaluable in enabling me to attend various external post-op medical follow-up appointments.

I’m most grateful to everyone I have been in contact with during this period who gave me such useful assistance.

And, without question, I would highly recommend Cotswold Friends to other people in the North Cotswolds who find themselves in need of some help, short-term or long term.

Finally I would say to the donors and supporters of the organisation that their financial assistance and services in kind greatly contribute towards the provision of a fantastic service to many people during their time of need.”
