Thank you Nicola Bird for your invaluable kindness and work, growing and then donating the cut flowers to those in the community. Nicola has asked Chit Chat and Chores to distribute to those in need. This week we chose those on their own. One of our clients received a beautiful bunch together with a lady I know of who is really suffering. To see their eyes light up with joy was so lovely.

Thank you Nicola and your Floral Project. It really does make a difference 🌸💕

We have been a big discussion amongst the Chit Chatterers.
1). Banana sandwiches. Right or wrong.
2). Sliced or mashed?

Lucky enough to have met Nicola Bird who set up the Floral Project. In the summer months she donates bunches of flowers for Chit Chat and Chores to donate to our clients, care homes we visit and the general community. Here is one of our lovely ladies on the receiving end and another lady in a care home. The carehome uses them during their activity hour to make posies. Both so delighted. 🌸🌷🌺. Thanks Nicola for caring for the community and spreading happiness x

Copied & pasted from Linkdin

Everything you "know" about preventing dementia is probably wrong.
And that's costing lives.

We tell people: Do crossword puzzles! Learn languages! Brain games!

Meanwhile, over 7 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's. By 2050, this number is projected to rise to nearly 13 million

Our prevention advice isn't working. Here's why:

1/ Crosswords don't save neurons
↳ They improve crossword skills
↳ Brain adapts to specific tasks
↳ No transfer to daily function
↳ Gives false security

2/ The real brain protectors we ignore
↳ Treating hearing loss (reduces dementia risk by 18%)
↳ Managing blood pressure in midlife
↳ Addressing sleep apnea aggressively
↳ Social connection (not Facebook)

3/ Exercise beats every brain game
↳ Increases BDNF (brain fertilizer)
↳ Improves vascular health
↳ Reduces inflammation
↳ Actually grows hippocampus

4/ The prevention paradox
↳ What works is boring
↳ What's sexy doesn't work
↳ Apps make money, not miracles
↳ Simple interventions get ignored

Last month, a patient proudly showed me his 500-day brain training streak. His sleep apnea? Untreated for a decade. His hearing aids? In a drawer.

We're playing games while our brains suffocate at night.

The unsexy truth about prevention:

Get your hearing checked and USE the aids

Treat sleep apnea like your life depends on it

Move your body every single day

Maintain in-person relationships, not only online ones

Control your blood pressure starting NOW

Your brain doesn't need more puzzles.

It needs oxygen, blood flow, and human connection.

The next time someone sells you brain games, ask them about their sleep study results.

⁉️ What unsexy health issue are you avoiding that might matter more than brain training?
♻️ Repost to save someone from wasting time on digital snake oil

I’ve only stopped being triggered on Father’s Day, Mother’s Day too! So for all you out there that have lost your Dads, who never had their Dads in their lives, for those who have had blended family dads as well as those who are sooooo lucky to be able to hug your Dads….I celebrate Father’s Day with you!

Life is intricate, confusing and has so many twists and turns. We have no choice but to navigate these. Embrace and show your love while you can. Look after yourself and those you hold dear.

This is a pic of my Dad. For his and my Mum’s first wedding anniversary, which is paper, my Dad took himself off for a portrait sitting and gave this fabulously handsome picture of himself to her 🤣. There’s always a story. ❤️
