SCM Team Buzz Cut

Picture

This October the engineers of SCM will be saying goodbye to their luscious locks, or in some cases their usual bad hair days (!), in favour of a buzz cut in aid of Breast Cancer Now, a charity that is very close to the heart of many. 

Never more so now than for everyone on the SCM team following a colleague’s recent diagnosis.  The strength, courage and never failing cheerful persona of our colleague who shows such positivity and grit during their on-going treatment has inspired the team to show their support and do what they can to raise money and awareness for a charity that is the UK’s largest comprehensive breast cancer charity, Breast Cancer Now.


What about the ladies you say!?  Well, whilst it is only the chaps getting a close shave, the ladies on the team will be showing their support on the day with some unusual hair-dos that are bound to raise an eye brow or two!
Keep an eye out for updates on our webpage on Tuesday 12 October as the transformations take place!

About Breast Cancer Now
Steered by world-class research and powered by life-changing care, Breast Cancer Now is there for anyone affected by breast cancer, the whole way through, providing support for today and hope for the future.  Every donation they receive helps make sure that the research taking place in their labs and the care and support they provide to those who so desperately need it can continue.  With breast cancer being the fourth most common cause of death in the UK, every donation makes a difference and supports the research needed to find new ways to prevent, diagnose, treat and help people to live with the disease.  

To find out more about the work of Breast Cancer Now, please visit www.breastcancernow.org

A big thanks to Dean Smythson the barber who gave up his time for the Buzz Cut team -

COVID January 2021 update

During the COVID pandemic, Southern Care Maintenance has been working hard to maintain services to all our customers during what has been an exceptionally difficult time.

The health, safety and wellbeing of all our employees and customers is of paramount importance and we have implemented measures to ensure everyone's safety.  All engineers have been equipped with the necessary PPE and sanitiser and some have already received vaccinations.

We are providing the best service we can given the circumstances and the situation is changing on a daily basis, with customers having to cancel visits at the last minute due to COVID cases.  We are continuously monitoring the situation and dealing with sites on a case by case basis.

Thanks to the hard work and flexibility of staff, we are proud to have maintained all our staffing levels.

COVID - 19 update


We are slowly returning to "normal' working as customers are now allowing us access to their premises and thank you to everyone for your patience during this difficult time.

Only a few of our staff are now furloughed, and we are experiencing strong demand for our services so please continue to use email or our Contact Us page as the best way of communication for routine enquiries.

However, if reporting an urgent fault or breakdown, please ring our 24 hour telephone number
and we will respond as soon as we can.

CORONAVIRUS / COVID-19

​Southern Care Maintenance has been providing 24 hours Peace of Mind service for our contract customers for the last 30 years. However, in order to comply with the Government's latest rules announced on 23 March 2020 we are no longer able to continue offering our full range of services.

James Brokenshire (Minister of State for Security at the Home Office)  has extended the Key Worker status to all fire safety personnel actively working in fire safety. Ian Moore, CEO of the Fire Industry Association has said, "Fire Engineers carry out a mission-critical job to not only fix but maintain fire systems and products such as extinguishers, fire alarms systems etc. We have real first-hand knowledge and evidence of the dangerous and potentially deadly effects that a lack of maintenance on fire systems can lead to...".

We have therefore decided to only provide essential call-outs in the Alarms Division and all services in the Nursing Equipment Division are being suspended from 1 April 2020. 

Our engineers have been instructed to follow the COVID-19 precautions from the Government and NHS and have the necessary PPE equipment to do this.

We will try to provide some support by email to any messages received through our website - southerncare.co.uk and will review the situation weekly as this is a fast changing situation and full services will be resumed immediately Government's rules have changed.

We are sorry for any inconvenience caused but hope you understand this is the right thing to do in the current situation in order to help protect our staff, our customers and the NHS.

Men in Black

If you have recently seen our Nursing Division Engineers you may have noticed they are looking a little different.

Now sporting a new black uniform to set them apart from our Fire Division Engineers, a new look but the same familiar faces.....
