🎃 A Safe and Considerate Halloween 🎃

As Halloween approaches, we know how much fun it can be for children (and adults!) to dress up and enjoy an evening of trick-or-treating. But for some older people in our community, unexpected knocks at the door after dark can feel a little unsettling.

At Home Instead, we’re helping to keep Halloween safe and enjoyable for everyone by offering ‘No Trick or Treating’ signs to any of our clients who would prefer a quieter evening. 🏡✨

Let’s all do our part to make sure the night is full of treats, not tricks, for every neighbour.

🧡 A little kindness goes a long way!

Sometimes it’s the little things that tell us a loved one might need extra help — missing meals, avoiding social activities, or finding everyday tasks harder than before. 🌸

If you’ve spotted changes and you’re unsure what to do next, we’re here to help. Reach out for friendly advice and practical support to keep your loved one safe and independent at home.

Our Ascot team thanked client Wikie for putting her trust in Home Instead for 5 whole years this week, by popping by with some flowers for a catch up.

At Home Instead, we know that choosing care is never an easy decision. It’s something most people hope they’ll never have to think about — and when the time comes, it can feel like a big step.

That’s why we want to say a heartfelt thank you to our clients and families for putting their trust in us. We never take that for granted. Every visit, every conversation, every moment of care is shaped by our commitment to helping people live safely, independently, and happily in the place they call home.

Your trust means everything to us

When a loved one experiences a fall, it can be worrying — but knowing how to respond can make all the difference.

Simple steps like staying calm, checking for injuries, and making small home adjustments can really help with recovery and confidence. And sometimes, having a little extra support at home can bring peace of mind for everyone. 💜

At Home Instead Ascot, we also offer free Falls Prevention Talks for local businesses and community groups — helping raise awareness and share advice on keeping older adults safe and independent at home.

📞 Call 01252 282863 to learn more or book a talk for your organisation.
