What families say

“Dad tells me about the card game before he says hello.”

Google review, 2025

“The daily note home is the best part of my week.”

Family survey, 2026

Why I do this work

I trained as a recreational therapist because the hour after lunch in most care settings is the loneliest hour of the day. It does not have to be.

Our day program runs like a good club: the same faces, a few jobs to do and something to look forward to tomorrow.
