@CaraOates1 @OT_LKF_ @HendenLauren Just jumping on here to say that we’ve just collated some data to show the impact of animal safari sessions at woodlands - happy to share that too if it would be helpful?

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
