🌻 Supporting Dementia Awareness in Our Communities 🌻

This week, our team at Fleetwood Hall Care Home hosted a Free Dementia Care Workshop at Fleetwood Town FC — and what an incredible day it was! 💙

We’d like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended — families, carers, and professionals — all coming together with a shared commitment to improving the lives of those living with dementia.

The session explored key areas such as effective communication, understanding behaviours, and creating safe, supportive environments. The discussions and personal stories shared truly reflected the power of community and compassion.

At Sandstone Care Group, we’re proud to see our homes and teams leading initiatives that promote understanding and quality care. Events like this demonstrate our ongoing commitment to supporting residents, families, and the wider community.

👏 Thank you to Fleetwood Hall and everyone who made this workshop such a meaningful success!

🍂 A Lovely Day Out for The Oaks Nursing Home Residents! 🍂

Residents from The Oaks enjoyed a wonderful outing to Coed-y-Dinas Garden Centre this week.
