Date Published: 19/08/2025

As a family-owned and operated business, Your NRG understands the importance of looking after our communities. We’re proud to give back to the communities we work in and to support the amazing work undertaken by different organisations to cultivate positive change within our localities. 

Our Giving Back initiative focusses on supporting those who help to make a difference, ensuring the positive effects of their work can continue. With every nomination and voting period for Giving Back, we get to hear about the incredible organisations in your area and what they do.

With this in mind, we’re really pleased to announce the latest recipient of our Giving Back initiative, Charlotte Straker House! 

Charlotte Straker House is a non-profit care home dedicated to supporting the happiness and health of its elderly residents. They provide 24/7 personal care, medical support to their residents, and respite and regularly organise activities for those staying there. Not only this, but Charlotte Straker House is also the only care home service in the North East to offer free respite care to families, providing invaluable support and relief during challenging times.

Steve Adams, CEO of Charlotte Straker House, commented on their Giving Back victory:

“We are incredibly grateful to everyone who took the time to vote for us in the Giving Back initiative. The overwhelming support from our community truly means the world to us and highlights the importance of the work we do every day. 

We would also like to extend our thanks to Your NRG for offering this fantastic scheme, which helps shine a light on organisations like ours and enables us to continue making a positive difference. This recognition motivates us to keep pushing forward and supporting those who rely on us."

Gordon Wallis, Your NRG’s Head of Marketing & Communications, added:

Their unwavering dedication to enriching the lives of older residents perfectly reflects our commitment to nurturing and empowering every member of the communities where we live and serve. Together, we strive to create a positive and lasting impact that enhances well-being and fosters a strong sense of belonging for everyone.”
