Today I visited a client in an aged care home in Casino, accompanying a family member to offer support and gentle presence.

One small but powerful detail stood out — a care worker wearing a bright pink uniform with large red strawberries. Against the beige surroundings, it brought instant warmth and colour into the space.

For someone living with dementia, this kind of visual contrast really matters. Familiar carers who are easy to spot can support recognition, comfort, and connection. It’s no surprise this is my client’s favourite carer — his family says his face lights up when she appears.

Sometimes it’s the simplest things — colour, kindness, visibility — that make environments feel more human and more supportive.

💗🍓 Colour, connection, and compassion really do matter.
