It's National Inclusion Week 🌈
Inclusion is about more than simply being present—it's about feeling welcomed, respected and able to be yourself.

Today is World Alzheimer's Day.
Raising awareness helps build more understanding, compassionate and inclusive communities for people living with dementia and those who support them. The Alzheimer's Society has some fantastic information for those of you who would like to learn more about this disease and how to manage it, or how to support someone living with it.
Together, we can help ensure everyone feels respected, valued and included.

Alzheimer’s Society is the UK’s leading dementia charity. We give vital support to those who need it, fund groundbreaking research, and campaign to improve experiences. It will take a society to beat dementia.

A fantastic introductory session for the lovely Emma, who is joining the RISE team! 💙

We worked on upper-body mobility, gentle exercise to music 🎵 and finished with some fun games.

We co-created the session with the residents, giving them a voice and choice throughout. This helps build confidence, independence and a real sense of ownership over their activity.

At RISE, it’s all about working with people, not just delivering activities to them — adapting each session around what they enjoy, what they can do and what makes them smile. 💙

A lovely first session for Emma — we’re so excited to have her as part of the RISE team! 🌟
