On New Year’s Eve, we held a special service of remembrance to remember all the special people we have said ‘Goodbye’ to in 2018. Alison and Silvia led a memorial service with a special video, readings, poems and the reading of names of all of those who had passed away in 2018. We were joined by families and staff to raise a toast to these amazing residents, followed by the releasing of balloons in their memory. It was an emotional, but beautiful day to share stories and memories.

The Comforting Magic of Animals in Dementia Care
At Stow Healthcare, we see every day how meaningful connection, familiar routines and moments of comfort can make a real difference to those living with dementia. One beautiful example of this is the special bond many of our residents share with animals. Across our homes, animals play a much-loved role in daily life.
