New change to our Dementia Level 2 training - we added some live demonstrations from HCAs Carl and Andrea, teaching the group about ways to approach care. It was a hit! Thank you both! @NurseCarlaPage @anncollins70 @Amy_Lea_OT @GMMH_NHS

#SelfCareWeek was a great way to remind our woodlands team how crucial it is, to take care of ourselves. We focused on building in spaces to breathe and relax, then our service users helped pick the lucky winners of some staff treats! @GMMH_NHS @Clare_Charman @LeanneIrwin19

When @FoundlingMuseum and I made this project we didn't envisage it would be on the cover of The New review in The Observer. Inside, it will reveal an "Historic picture" & testimony from some of the most incredible people I have ever known. Superheroes. Out on Sunday.
