We’re so proud of our home care colleague Michelle for volunteering at Highgate Cemetary, something she attributes to being able to do thanks to Penrose Care’s ethical labour practices.

Michelle says, “Working for a company that pays the London Living Wage means that I have the time and energy to spend on my hobbies and passions. I can also live in my chosen area of London: Highgate.”

Being an ethical employer creates a positive cycle in our communities. Penrose Care workers also volunteer as London emergency service workers, at soup kitchens and anti-loneliness initiatives of the Companions of the Order of Malta, and various community groups to help beautify our communities. Thank you all for your service to our elderly and disabled clients and to our wider London communities.

> In 2012, he started the Living Wage movement in UK home care. Then there were only 4 home care providers in the UK that were Accredited Living Wage Employers. Today there are over 240 care organisations accredited, improving the lives of tens of thousands of care workers across the UK.⁣
> In 2014, Mr Stephenson-Padron successfully lobbied for the enforcement of the National Minimum Wage in British home care, improving the lives of 100s of thousands of low-paid care workers in the UK.⁣
> Penrose Care has twice been rated outstanding by the health and social care regulator, CQC - the highest rating only 2% of providers in London have.⁣
> Recognised internationally, Penrose Care has twice been named the Most Outstanding home care provider in the world and has hosted international research delegations from Canada, China, Japan, South Korea and Thailand.⁣
