Chacombe Park care home staff and residents get moving

Established in 2000, the Foundation does invaluable work supporting older people and other adults living with a disability or mental health problems by helping them to connect or re-connect with others in their local communities. Last year the Foundation achieved a donation milestone of £225,000 which enabled the charity to provide vital help to a staggering 160 small groups and charities, plus 87 individuals in one year alone.

To help boost the Foundation’s coffers in 2024, on 20th of June, staff and residents at the home celebrated Get Moving week by playing a game of rounders and enjoying the sunshine. Everyone came together and celebrated a wellbeing day whilst enjoying each other’s company.

Donna Phillips (senior carer) and Kate Burclaf (unit manager) at Chacombe Park said: “We had a fantastic time – it was really lovely to spend some time away from our normal duties and have such fun interactions with the residents and other staff members. It always makes the residents have more fun when they can see us enjoying ourselves too.”
