The end of an era ✨💙
Today marks a very emotional day for all of us at Pro Carers as we say goodbye to our wonderful Care Coordinator, Leanne, who is leaving the team after an incredible 10 years of service.
Over the past decade, Leanne has been a huge part of our organisation supporting both our care team and our clients with kindness and professionalism. Her hard work, compassion, and care have made a lasting impact on so many lives, and she will be greatly missed by everyone.

☕💧 BUSTING THE MYTH: “Tea & coffee dehydrate you” 💧☕
FALSE! 🙌 All non-alcoholic drinks count towards your daily fluid intake, including tea and coffee. Decaf options are even better when you can choose them ☺️
💦 Why hydration matters
Water makes up around two-thirds of our body, and staying hydrated helps prevent things like headaches, dizziness, constipation, UTIs and even confusion or falls.
🥛 What counts?
Aim for 6–8 drinks a day. Water, milk, tea, coffee, fruit juice — they all count!
Even foods like soup, yoghurt, jelly, ice lollies and water-rich fruits help too.
⚠️ Who might be at risk?
Older adults, people who rely on others for drinks, those with swallowing difficulties, illness, or anyone limiting fluids to avoid the toilet can be more at risk of dehydration.
👀 Signs to watch for
Dark urine, tiredness, headaches, dry mouth, confusion or drinking less than usual can all be warning signs.
💡 Top tip: Don’t wait until you’re thirsty — sip little and often throughout the day.
🎉 Our first Care Friends cash payouts of the year have just been approved 🎉
Congratulations to Grace R and Lyndsey W, from Spinnaker House, who’ve just had a combined cash bonus of £270 authorised, which will be landing straight into their wages very soon 💷
What a great way to start 2026 🤗🛍💵
