Care Professional Receives Electric Bike from Shropshire Town Council Scheme

At Radfield Home Care Shrewsbury & Oswestry, we are thrilled to celebrate the achievement of one of our dedicated Care Professionals, Melinda Mooney, who has been awarded an electric bike through a Shropshire Town Council initiative. Melinda applied for the scheme and officially received her new bike on 7th February 2025, marking an exciting step towards more sustainable transport options for our team.

Supporting Key Workers with Sustainable Transport in Shropshire

The Shropshire Town Council initiative is designed to promote sustainable transport while supporting key workers, like Melinda. By providing environmentally friendly transport solutions, the council aims to reduce carbon emissions, alleviate traffic congestion in urban areas, and encourage a shift towards greener modes of travel. This initiative is especially beneficial for essential workers, including Care Professionals, offering a practical and eco-conscious way to move around the community efficiently.

We are proud that Melinda’s role as a Care Professional has been recognised through this scheme. Her dedication to delivering exceptional home care services aligns perfectly with Radfield Home Care’s mission to help people age well while staying connected to what matters most.

Enhancing Home Care Services in Shrewsbury

Melinda’s new electric bike will play a key role in supporting our clients across Shrewsbury. With many individuals living in and around the town centre, the bike will allow her to reach care calls and client visits quickly, avoiding heavy traffic and reducing travel time. This enables us to continue providing timely, responsive home care, while minimising our environmental footprint.

Recognising the potential benefits for the entire team, Melinda kindly suggested that some of her office colleagues also use the bike to visit clients. The council welcomed this suggestion and approved its shared use, further enhancing our ability to deliver high-quality care across the area.

A Commitment to Sustainability and Quality Care

At Radfield Home Care Shrewsbury & Oswestry, we are committed to delivering the highest standard of care while embracing sustainable solutions. By integrating greener transport options into our daily operations, we are not only supporting our team but also contributing to a healthier planet. The electric bike aligns with our values of providing care that people want as well as need, ensuring our services remain both accessible and environmentally responsible.

We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to Shropshire Town Council for this fantastic initiative and to Melinda for her dedication to our clients and the environment. We are excited to see the positive impact this initiative will have on our home care services and the local community.
