❤️ Remembrance Day 2025 ❤️

Today, we pause to remember and honour the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country.
Their courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten. 🌹

At Network Healthcare, this day holds special meaning. Many of our clients lived through World War II — carrying memories, stories, and resilience that continue to inspire us every day. We are deeply honoured to care for a generation that showed such extraordinary strength and compassion in the face of hardship.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we will remember them. 🕊️

Small changes can make a big difference 💙

People living with dementia may experience the world differently due to damage in the brain. This can lead to changes in perception, including:

Misperceptions – seeing one thing as something else (e.g. mistaking a shadow for a spider)
Misidentifications – confusing people or objects (e.g. thinking a son is their husband)
Hallucinations & Delusions – seeing or believing things that aren’t there
Time-shifting – mixing up past and present.

These experiences can be confusing or distressing for the person and those around them. But with understanding and support, you can help them feel safe and confident.

As explained by our @‌DementiaFriends team, something as simple as swapping a dark coloured mat – which could be mistaken for a hole in the ground – to a light coloured one could be helpful for a person living with dementia.

There are lots of little things you can do to support a person experiencing changes in perception, which might look like:

- Making sure glasses are worn and hearing aids are working (if used)

- Not moving furniture, or changing where things are kept

- Not drawing attention to their mistakes

- Improving lighting levels and reducing visual clutter

- Asking friends and relatives to introduce themselves when they arrive

- Describing the food and drink and where it is on the table

🎀 Breast Cancer Awareness Month 🎀

Today, all the staff in our Clevedon office are proudly wearing pink to show support for those affected by breast cancer and to help raise awareness for this important cause 💗

Early detection saves lives — so remember to check yourself regularly and book your screenings.

Here are a few facts to keep in mind:
💗 1 in 7 women in the UK will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime.
💗 Men can get breast cancer too — it’s rare but important to be aware.
💗 The earlier breast cancer is found, the better the chance of successful treatment.
💗 Regular self-checks and mammograms are key to early detection.

Let’s keep spreading awareness, supporting one another, and wearing pink with purpose 💕

🌸 Wendy’s last day! 🌸

We’re saying goodbye to the lovely Wendy, who’s retiring after 10 amazing years with Network Healthcare. She’s been such a big part of the team - always smiling, always ready to help, and just such a wonderful person to have around.

We’re going to miss her so much, but we’re wishing her all the happiness and relaxation in the world for this next chapter. 💐💛

(Big bunch of flowers for a big heart!)

☕💚 Macmillan Coffee Morning — Thank You! 💚☕

We’re still buzzing from last week’s Coffee Morning and thrilled to share the total… together we raised £235 for Macmillan Cancer Support!

From the first kettle boil to the very last slice of cake, you showed up with generosity, warmth, and that brilliant community spirit we love. Whether you baked, brewed, donated, washed mugs, or simply popped in for a quick cuppa and a chat—thank you. Every pound raised helps Macmillan be there for people living with cancer, offering practical, emotional, and financial support when it’s needed most.

We counted up every coin and online donation to reach £235 - and we couldn’t be prouder of what we achieved together.

This won’t be our last fundraiser - so keep your ideas (and recipes!) coming. Until then, thank you for turning coffee, cake, and conversation into real support for people facing cancer. 💚
