Good Life Sorted - Cornwall

19/11/2025

With Cornwall now under an amber weather warning for snow and ice, we thought it would be helpful to share some of our top tips for staying warm and well in the colder months, especially for those who may feel the chill a little more.

Here are a few of our favourite winter wellness tips from the Good Life Sorted team:

🧣Layers, layers and (you've guessed it!) more layers!
Light layers trap heat better than one thick jumper, also they are far easier to adjust as the day goes on.

🍲 Keep Comfort Food Simple
Warming meals like homemade soup, slow-cooker stews or porridge are nourishing, budget-friendly and perfect for chilly days. Helper Sarah regularly makes soup with her customers!

☕ Warm Up From the Inside
Herbal teas, hot squash or even warm water with lemon can help you stay hydrated and warm.

🏠 Create a Cosy Corner
A warm blanket, good lighting and a favourite book or radio show can turn any room into a comforting space. Also remembering to close internal doors will reduce draughts and trap warm air in to rooms.

💛 Stay Connected
A quick chat with a friend, neighbour or family member can brighten even the coldest winter day.

And remember — our Good Life Sorted Helpers in Cornwall are here to make winter easier. From shopping and errands to companionship, meal prep and welfare checks, we’re here to support you or your loved ones to stay safe, warm and well.

Bonfire Night can be magical, but it can also be overwhelming for our older neighbours and their companions or service animals.

The loud bangs, unexpected flashes, smoke from fireworks, and the general noise and bustle may cause real distress, especially for those with dementia, breathing/heart conditions, mobility issues or who live alone.

This year, let’s remember to look out for them with these helpful tips:

✅ Check in with older neighbours, pop over, give them a call, ask how they’re feeling about the evening.

✅ Offer a quiet, safe space for them. Close curtains early, keep windows shut, play something familiar inside to soften external noise.

✅ Help if they’d rather skip the firework show, invite them for a hot drink, watch a calm film together, do an indoor activity instead.

✅ If they do want to go out, choose a well-organised public display, check mobility access, seats and safe return.

✅ Be mindful of the darkness/outside lighting, perhaps leave their porch light on, tidy walkways, reduce trip hazards.

A little awareness can make a big difference. Let’s help everyone enjoy the sparkle, without the worry.
