Brendoncare Releases Single To Mark 40th Anniversary
Hampshire-based charity The Brendoncare Foundation is releasing a single of an all-time favourite song to mark its 40th anniversary (14th February).
To tie in with the day also being Valentine’s Day, Brendoncare residents, colleagues, community club members and volunteers have recorded and videoed a cover version of Stevie Wonder’s classic I Just Called To Say I Love You. The single is now available to buy. It will help to raise money for Brendoncare’s vital work supporting older people in the community.

Project manager, Rebecca Spicer, Brendoncare’s Wellbeing Manager, explains: “We decided to record I Just Say I Love You because not only is it a song everyone loves and enjoys, but its message also encapsulates everything Brendoncare stands for.
“A vital part of our community service work is offering telephone support to our club members who are living alone, feeling isolated or going through a challenging time in their lives. Our team of telephone volunteers are there to call them on a regular basis for a friendly chat or at any time when they need help or advice.”
Rebecca continues: “We all had the most fantastic fun making the record and video. Everybody really came together to lend us both their time and their fantastic voices. We do have some real singing superstars out there.”
A wide range of celebrations have been planned to mark Brendoncare’s 40th anniversary, including burying a time capsule, parties and lunches.
