We are celebrating Carers Week with a focus on the benefits of taking “short breaks” and a chance to recharge when caring for others.
We have made pamper kits for unpaid carers visiting the ward today to acknowlege the amazing and vital work they do ✨

Today our Occupational Therapy student Zoe offered a nature focused group. Not only was it a fun activity, but it also promoted the use of fine motor skills, sensory awareness and social interaction 🌻👌🏼💬
