Please find attached details of a new service which was emailed to me. It looks like a very good initiative and if you try it please let me know so I can give feedback:
Dear Guy,
I’m emailing to tell you about a valuable service Aster Living provides in partnership with Hampshire County Council, and to ask if you could spread the word to your constituents.
Hampshire County Council has commissioned us to provide a subsidised handyperson service right across Hampshire for anyone over the age of 55, or anyone who is disabled (including families who have disabled children). The aim of the service is to provide a value for money and trusted handyperson service to get those jobs done around the house that the householder can’t do. We can do all sorts of things like fitting curtain tracks, fixing cupboard doors, fitting key safes, moving furniture, replacing electrical sockets, small plumbing jobs, fitting grab rails and hand rails, putting up shelves, changing tap washers and much, much more.
The subsidised hourly rates for labour (incl VAT) are £12 if the customer gets a means tested benefit and £18 if they don’t. All materials are charged at cost and all our handy persons are fully trained and DBS checked.
Did you know? Every day, Aster Living helps thousands of people to live their lives by providing high-quality care and support services to over 20,000 customers. We put customers at our heart. We’re there for you… and together we make a real difference. To find out more visit http://www.asterliving.co.uk
