Client Testimonials
What clients say about Feros Care Social Groups
What a delightful surprise I had when I discovered I was the recipient of a Feros Hamper. I felt very special, humble but very delighted!!! What a beautiful idea and thank you very much FEROS! What I really loved was the 2 handwritten cards plus a lovely Christmas dangling ornament, coloured in by a young schoolboy. It’s such a wonderful way of making stronger, caring communities.
Helen
“I am delighted whenever Patricia visits or calls. When we meet, it’s like greeting an old friend—we share hugs and kisses. Our time together is filled with joy, laughter, and pleasant conversations. We understand each other well, as we both grew up in the old days, when life was different.”
Alexandra
“At first, when they mentioned Renay, I wondered if she might be too young for me. But, you know, she’s got this old soul about her. We can chat for hours, over dinner or a cuppa, and it’s just wonderful. I’m so blessed to have her in my life.”
