♡ This week has been a perfect blend of seeking out all the beneficial experiences that sustain our interests in activities that provide us with joy.

♡ Having explored many places of interests together we put our thinking caps on to decide on our where our next mini adventure might take us. It is so important for us as Carers to listen to those we support to truly benefit from our time together. Creating experiences no matter the destination, length of time, or what it involves, means the world to the individuals we support.

♡ Monday did not disappoint. The air was milder, the sky was blue and we set about exploring somewhere local. Plymouth Boatyard & Marina down in Richmond Walk Plymouth is a wonderful place to visit, explore and taking in the breathtaking views. This hidden gem has spectacular views overlooking across to Mount Edgcumbe House and Country Park (Official) The local people walking their dogs who were happy to stop and talk and impart their love for the area and it's rich history was an added bonus. Community connections help to alleviate feelings of social isolation and boosts our feel good hormones. 🤝

♡ Otter Nurseries Garden Centre & plymstock Broadway are in full colour with their spring blooms. With so many plants and flowers to cast our eyes over we used our senses to immerse ourselves in their rich patterns and colours. Again, it was the perfect opportunity to learn about which types of spring flowers are best to plant and easy to care for. Those living with Dementia feel the therapeutic benefits of being out in nature - sensory engagement with plants and flowers stimulates memories.

♡ We put aside plenty of time to help care for the birds that are regular visitors to the garden. To our delight we spotted a Magpie, Crow and a magnificent Robin. The simple act of breaking up bread to feed the birds creates a sense of purpose for helping to take care of our winged friends. Never underestimate these moments which can be shared in the most simplest of ways, providing relaxation.

♡ Come and follow us on our journey of adventure, memory moments, and connection. 💜 🌎

I have to take a moment to say a late Happy Birthday shoutout to a lady who has the biggest heart, a warm and loving nature and knows all the latest fashion styles. You always shine with your wonderful sense of curiosity and gentle ways. Supporting you is both a privilege and joy. We are like two peas in a pod who just love the tranquility of being out in nature, with a steely eye for a good bargain!

Your family really pampered you with a trip out to enjoy the views Bigbury on Sea with your husband, followed by a good lunch and plenty of scrummy cake 💜 🎂 🌏

♡ This week has been packed full of 1st times with a combination of visiting new places of interest and getting to experience some new interests.

♡ To our delight having had our attention piqued through personal recommendations we spent the afternoon Market Hall. What an absolute gem of a venue we found ourselves in! The calming atmosphere, coupled with interesting spaces to explore and learn from had us in awe of the richness of what was on offer. This is truly a place of Community & Connection, where you can feel safe to move around at your own pace. The Tapestry exhibits were a topic of conversation, whilst learning about the local heritage trail where you can visit buildings along the way is definitely on our, 'To do list.'🤝

♡ Saltrum House didn't disappoint either and having spent many enjoyable times here over the last couple years, we definitely found ourselves bemused by the ducks! To our surprise we were greeted by the playfulness and the mischief of the ducks greeting us at the entrance to their pond area. Perhaps the pond water was just a little too cold for them to be on and they decided to investigate the wall area instead. We may never know, but it allowed us the opportunity to watch them and be up close enough to capture their interactions with each other.

♡ Plymouth Hoe Waterfront on a Saturday afternoon it was a great time to learn about a new client's love for sailing out in her boat. The view from Plymouth Sound made it easy to listen to her adventures sailing in different countries; imagining what it must be like to be out on the open water in Dartmouth, being followed by a pod of dolphins. I'm really looking forward to visiting some marinas with you and learning more about sailing.

♡ We also put aside time for some quiet, reminiscing activities; putting together a flower arrangement allowed us the chance to use our senses, sparking conversation about familiar smells and scents. Armed with seasonal pictures of spring flowers and plants we put together an album to use when we are feeling like some quiet reflection. Not to mention a soothing deep tissue hand massage, sharing in the tranquility of the afternoon - perfect for calming our minds.

♡ Come and follow us on our journey of adventure, memory moments, and connection. 💜 🌎

Someone once said if you take care of someone with dementia you lose them more and more everyday. When they get the diagnosis, when they go through different stages, when they need treatment and when they pass away. This is called "ambiguous loss". As the brain slowly dies, they change physically and eventually forget who their loved ones are. They could end up lying in bed, not moving and not eating or drinking.
There will be people who will scroll past this post because Dementia has not touched them. They may not know what it's like to have a loved one who has battled or is still battling dementia.
To raise awareness of this cruel disease, I would like my friends to put this on their page today.
Hold your finger on the post to copy and paste to your timeline.
A special thank you to anyone willing to put this on their timeline for Dementia Awareness Week. 💙

♡ Yesterday I spent in quiet reflection. It's hard to believe that a year has already flown by, but I'm so grateful to have been a part of your journey before you passed away. To celebrate the day last year, I found a single Daffodil on my kitchen window sill. It was yellow as you like, standing tall - catching me off guard.

In memory of February 25th 2025, this is what I wrote.

♡ Yesterday was always going to be hard, but the sun came out and the stream glistened to remind us all of the beauty in the world, despite our tears and sadness 🌎

Thank you to a truly beautiful family who all pulled together to give you the send off you deserved. The service, the family's personal tribute and time spent afterwards sharing stories of your yesteryear was truly touching. It was a privilege to be part of your Care & Support family, and even though I couldn't quite beat you at those pesky games (apart from one time!!) I will endeavour to up my game 💜 🌎 🤝

I will never forget your grandchildren's picture they did for you as part of their send off. They're an absolute credit to you 🥰

Just for you, here's a miniature daffodil that has opened up for me today 😉

♡ February 25th 2026, I hope you have found peace and delight in seeing your beautiful family grow. They remain an absolute credit to you.
