As Chris approaches 60, he has said that he want’s his “Actions to be his Statement, if you have a chance to make a difference, then that is a chance I must take”. That is exactly what he has done with Rest Assured.

Home Essentials was the 1st Foreign National Company to invest in Ukraine since Russia’s invasion in February 2022. It’s presence is not only offering the small city of Kremenets industry, employment and support for the local community. They are only providing invaluable assistance to the thousands of refugees, displaced and those fighting on the frontline, they are providing Hope and reassurance for their future.
