Campaigns at Care UK

There's never a dull moment at Care UK!

As well as the weekly programme of activities organised by our lifestyle teams, we often take part in fun campaigns throughout the year, which allow us to hold celebrations in the home and events with the community.

The Big Dementia Conversation

At Care UK we’re passionate about providing the highest standards of quality dementia care, and we never miss an opportunity to help educate and support communities and carers – which is why we’ve launched this new initiative: The Big Dementia Conversation.

Christmas number one

Christmas is always a magical time of year full of glad tidings, comfort and joy – but in 2023 we decided to take it one step further by writing our own Christmas song.

Care to share

In 2023 we launched a brand-new nationwide initiative to help combat loneliness in the community during the festive season.

Care home open week 2023

To celebrate Care Home Open Week, we took part in a national initiative that encouraged care homes to open their doors to the community, our Care UK homes planned a series of festival themed events across the country.

Bedtime stories

Children’s stories are often the first key to unlocking our imaginations and nurturing a lifelong love of reading. Unfortunately, we know not every child is lucky enough to have a grandparent to read to them, so we wanted to provide an alternate experience for families to enjoy. That’s why across the UK team members and residents shared their love of reading with their local communities

Wisdom booths

Each day at Care UK, we hear wonderful words of advice from residents, and we’ve decided it’s time for the rest of the world to benefit from them too. That’s why we’ve launched Wisdom Booths, a nationwide initiative which sees residents gift their words of wisdom to the younger generation.

Long lost hobbies

From woodworking to embroidery, these favourite hobbies from the past risk being lost or forgotten. That's why residents in Care UK homes have been stepping back in time to revisit their favourite pastimes.

Let's get physical

Exercise plays an essential role in not only our physical and mental health. That’s why we encouraged all Care UK homes to ‘get physical’ and try new, fun forms of exercise.

The Big Draw

We’re proud to support The Big Draw. Every October residents and teams across our homes get creative and take part in the international art campaign.

Food for thought

In 2021, residents and our teams stepped back in time to dine through the decades and celebrate residents' favourite foods from the past, as part as our ‘Food for thought’ campaign.

Ride 800

In 2019 three of Care UK’s directors to took part in a gruelling 800-mile ride, raising over £24,000 for charity.
