As part of International Self-Care Day, our service-users in The Orangery got together to discuss the importance of self-care, what practices help each person to be at their best and to look at ways together to enhance their physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing.

Having a display of different photographs representing various methods of self-care, the groups selected photos that they were drawn to most and discussed why it best related to how they practise self-care.

Delivering outstanding care to our patients and their loved ones is our priority, and we were pleased to hear so many wonderful hobbies, techniques, methods and activities our service-users undertake to help them be at their best.
