Hi Andy

The trick with Carers is you have to get them to actually do the activities

I think motivation is key

You want to keep things simple like dice games or card games

We have been a member of Golden Carers for the past 5 years and honestly, it makes our lives here both easier and more interesting!!! The hours it saves us when planning activities for our residents result in delivering quality activities. Our residents love the word searches and crosswords and the armchair travels have brought happy memories of holidays. Thank you for all you do!
