Carers of the Month

We’re really proud to recognise two amazing carers this month who have gone the extra mile for our clients.

Sarah – Warwickshire
Sarah stepped in at very short notice to support Staffordshire when calls went down, and did so without hesitation. She brought a great attitude, put clients first as she always does, and showed exactly what being a team player is all about. We’re incredibly proud to have her on our team.

Kulthoom - Live-In Carer
Kulthoom has been exceptional in her support of a client during a recent hospital stay. She stayed by the client’s bedside at all hours, making sure they were comfortable and well cared for throughout. Her dedication and compassion truly went above and beyond.

Thank you both for your hard work, commitment and care - you’re a real credit to the New Age Care team

A groundbreaking study by Swedish scientists at the renowned Karolinska Institute has revealed that your blood type might play a significant role in your risk of developing cancer.

According to their research, individuals with Blood Type I (O) are least vulnerable to cancer. Over the course of 35 years and studies on over 1 million patients, this group showed the lowest cancer incidence.

However, the results differ for those with other blood types:
• Blood Type II (A) individuals have a higher risk of stomach cancer.
• Blood Types III (B) and IV (AB) are more prone to pancreatic cancer.
The study also emphasizes that lifestyle factors such as alcohol consumption, smoking, and the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) contribute significantly to cancer risk.

Stay informed, stay healthy, and take proactive steps towards better health. Regular screenings and a balanced lifestyle are key!

Why Preventing Falls and Strengthening Bones Matters After 65

Falls are one of the biggest health risks for older adults:
➡️ 1 in 3 adults 65+ falls each year
➡️ For those 80+, it’s 1 in 2
➡️ 95% of hip fractures are caused by falls

But the good news: falls and fractures are not inevitable. With the right movement, environment, and nutrition, they can often be prevented.

How to Reduce Falls & Strengthen Bones
1. Strength & Balance
Weak muscles and poor balance increase fall risk. Targeted training can reduce it by up to 31%.
Examples: sit-to-stand, resistance bands, one-leg balance, gentle walking. Do 2–3 times weekly.
2. Flexibility & Mobility
Stretching ankles, hips, and back helps stability, range of motion, and recovery from stumbles.
3. Safer Home Environment
Most falls happen at home.
✔️ Remove loose rugs/cords
✔️ Improve lighting
✔️ Install grab bars
✔️ Wear supportive footwear

Nutrition for Strong Bones
Protein: 1.0–1.2g per kg bodyweight daily (eggs, fish, legumes, poultry).
Calcium: 1,000–1,200mg daily (dairy, greens, almonds, fortified foods).
Vitamin D3 + K2: Helps absorb calcium and direct it to bones.
Magnesium & Cofactors: Support bone formation and tissue repair.
Collagen Support: Collagen peptides + vitamin C keep joints, tendons, and ligaments resilient.

The Bottom Line
Falls and fractures don’t have to be part of ageing. With movement, nutrition, and small home adjustments, it’s possible to stay strong, independent, and mobile later in life.

How to Live Longer: The Simple Food for Longevity

Did you know that what you eat can influence not just your health, but also your lifespan? Scientists say that a balanced diet could help you live several years longer.
One simple change? Include nuts and seeds in your daily routine. Research shows that people who regularly consume these foods have a lower risk of death from all causes and improved heart health. ❤

These benefits come from alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), a type of polyunsaturated fat found in chia seeds, flaxseeds, soybeans, walnuts, and pecans. Studies of over 120,000 people show that eating ALA-rich foods can reduce the risk of death by up to 11% and lower the risk of cardiovascular disease by at least 5%.

At New Age Care, we know that small, thoughtful choices every day can make a big difference in long-term health. By supporting nutritious eating and promoting overall wellbeing, we help the people in our care live healthier, happier, and longer lives.

🌰 Eat well, live well, live longer - together with New Age Care.

Christmas Eve in the United Kingdom carries a charm all its own - quiet anticipation mixed with centuries of festive customs. While Christmas Day takes centre stage, the night before has always held a special kind of magic. Here’s a look at how people celebrate today and how the traditions evolved through history.

🎄 Christmas Eve Today
Across the UK, Christmas Eve is all about setting the scene for the big day:
• Carols by Candlelight: Many families attend evening church services, including the beloved Nine Lessons and Carols, a tradition made famous by King’s College, Cambridge.
• Last-minute preparations: Wrapping presents, prepping vegetables for Christmas dinner, and hanging stockings remain key parts of the evening—especially for families with children.
• Santa’s visit: Kids leave out mince pies and a glass of milk or sherry for Father Christmas, along with a carrot for Rudolph.
• Cosy gatherings: From board games to classic Christmas films, the evening has become synonymous with warm, relaxed family time

📜 How Christmas Eve Was Celebrated Historically
UK Christmas Eve traditions have changed dramatically across the centuries:
• Medieval and Tudor periods:
Christmas Eve was a day of fasting and reflection, with simpler foods eaten in preparation for the next day’s feast.
• Victorian Era:
Many beloved traditions - Christmas trees, stockings, cards, and widespread carol singing - became part of the festive season. Children would hang stockings by the fireplace, filled overnight by Father Christmas.
• Church-centred observance:
For centuries, Christmas Eve revolved around church services, with Midnight Mass becoming especially popular.
• Community festivities:
Villages lit the Yule log, sang together, and gathered for storytelling and merriment, marking the beginning of the Twelve Days of Christmas.
• Folklore and superstition:
From animals said to gain the power of speech at midnight to protective rituals and symbolic breads, folklore played a colourful role in Christmas Eve across the UK.

🎁 A Night of Anticipation and Magic
However it's celebrated - through tradition, reflection, or family moments - Christmas Eve continues to hold a special place in British hearts.

At New Age Care, we hope your festive season is filled with warmth, comfort, and connection. If you or a loved one needs support this Christmas, we’re here to help every step of the way.
