Premium Care Group Essex Homes – Supporting Dementia ‘Time for a Cuppa’ Event at Chelmsford City Racecourse
Staff and residents from Old Shenfield Place, Weald Hall, and Ardtully Care Home enjoyed a wonderful afternoon at the Dementia “Time for a Cuppa” event held at Chelmsford City Racecourse yesterday, showing their support for people living with dementia in the local community.
The event brought together members of the public in a warm and welcoming setting, with expert advice and guidance available from Dementia UK and Essex Dementia Care, helping to create a supportive and informative environment for all who attended.
Premium Care Group was delighted to host a stall at the event, offering visitors an opportunity to learn more about its homes and the wide range of activities available to residents. The team also highlighted the engaging programmes run within their homes, many of which are designed to bring people together and are often opened up to the wider community.
Staff and residents from Premium Care Groups 3 Essex Homes attended and thoroughly enjoyed an afternoon filled with tea, cake, and a variety of activities. A particular highlight was the opportunity to meet a horse, alongside spending time with friendly therapy dogs, which brought smiles and comfort to everyone involved.
The event provided a valuable space for individuals living with dementia, as well as their families, to access support, connect with others, and enjoy a relaxed and inclusive atmosphere.
Kate Wyatt, Premium Care Group’s Community Engagement Manager, said:
“We were incredibly proud to be part of such a meaningful event within our local community. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with others, support those living with dementia, and showcase the activities and care we provide within our homes. Our residents had a wonderful time.”
Premium Care Group would like to extend its sincere thanks to the organisers for hosting such a successful and impactful event and hopes the raffle raised valuable funds for Dementia UK.
