Care home invites Worcester residents to learn more about living well in older age

A care home in Worcester is inviting the community to its free ‘Senior Showcase’ event to find out more about the help and support available for local people caring for an older loved one.

On Thursday 28^th November from 1pm-4pm, the Care UK team at Perry Manor, on Charles Hastings Way, will welcome representatives of local services including Age UK, Alzheimer’s Society and the police, to provide helpful information and advice on living well in older age.

There will be advice on how to stay safe at home and improve mobility, thanks to practical instruction from domiciliary care and mobility specialists, along with the opportunity to talk directly to local service providers and organisations.

At the event, there will be a chance to share experiences, pick up free copies of Care UK’s helpful guides and meet the friendly team at Perry Manor to take a closer look at the care home.

Katherine Matthews, award-winning home manager at Perry Manor, said: “We know that it can be challenging to look after an older loved one. It’s natural to feel confused about the best way to help, so our event aims to offer professional knowledge and insight to those who need it – as well as providing a hub for shared experiences. 

“We want people to know they’re not alone, and we’re here to offer support. We look forward to welcoming local people to the home for an inspiring afternoon of information and guidance.”

Rated Outstanding by the CQC, Perry Manor is a state-of-the-art Care UK home, which provides full time residential, nursing and dementia care, as well as short term respite care. Designed to enable residents to live enjoyable and fulfilling lives, the care home has its very own cinema, coffee shop and hair salon, with plenty of space both indoors and out for relaxation and recreation.
