🌹 This Remembrance Day, we stand together reflecting on the memories, courage and sacrifice of those who served.

Our residents have spent time reflecting on memories, creating poppy crafts, and joining in music from the wartime era - remembering with love those who sacrificed so much.

Today and always,
We will remember them❤️

💛 Living Well with Diabetes at Swimbridge Care Home

At Swimbridge, we believe that good care means helping each resident live well. For those managing diabetes, that means offering the right balance of care, understanding, and encouragement to support both health and happiness.

Our approach is all about person-centred care. From our chefs preparing nutritious, delicious meals designed to help maintain steady blood sugar levels, to our staff encouraging light exercise and hydration, every part of our day supports wellbeing.

We also work closely with healthcare professionals and families to ensure residents receive the very best care for their individual needs.

If you’d like to learn more about diabetes care and support, you can read our latest blog here:
