About Us
We are a team of Christians from local churches who have been endorsed by Revive and commissioned by the churches to serve in residential care homes for older people. We aim to show the love of God through our pastoral and spiritual care of residents, relatives and staff.
The Gift of Years Rugby is affiliated to Anna Chaplaincy, which is part of the Bible Reading Fellowship (BRF) a Registered Charity.
