CARESCO is a unique charity based in the village of Sawtry, near Huntingdon in Cambridgeshire, which exists to serve the local community in Sawtry and its satellite villages...
The CARESCO Centre was opened in April 2001 and is used by many of the current activities, with the exception of the Sawtry Foodbank, the Charity Shop, the Community Support, Sawtry Car Scheme and the Cave. A garden was designed and planted by volunteers in 2005 for the enjoyment of our users, volunteers and staff...
In the 1970s local 'Rural Domestic Economist', Joy Robinson, started up a range of activities including a self-help Lunch Club in Sawtry which was based in a modular building known as the Homecraft Centre, half of which had been a domestic science classroom, on the edge of the secondary school campus. Around the same time a Social Worker, Ken Wilson, also began a Day Centre for the elderly which was based in the Adult Common Room at Sawtry Village Academy (then the Village College).
