Yesterday, our Braintree team came together at the beautiful Gosfield LAKE Resort for our summer BBQ — and it couldn’t have been more special.

Mike worked his magic behind the grill, Amanda delighted everyone with her homemade ice cream and strawberries, and Grainne brought along a delicious apple pie baked with apples kindly donated from a client’s garden. These little touches made the evening feel so warm and personal, just like our Home Instead family. 💜

The BBQ was also a chance to celebrate our team — with 2 and 3-year recognition badges, appreciation notes from our clients, and certificates awarded to those who completed the Virtual Dementia Tour Bus training.

A big thank you goes to our wonderful office team, who worked so hard to create such a lovely evening for everyone. Their thoughtfulness and effort truly made the event a day to remember. 🌸

We’re so touched by these kind words from a client’s family. Stories like this remind us why we do what we do — going the extra mile (sometimes literally!) to make sure our clients feel supported, cared for, and valued.

A huge thank you to this family for trusting us to be part of their mum’s journey 💐

🌟 Client Success Story 🌟

With gentle encouragement and consistent support, one of our lovely clients has been building her strength and confidence day by day.

What started as small steps has now become regular outdoor walks—helping her strengthen her bones, boost her wellbeing, and enjoy some fresh air.

Along the way, we’ve even bumped into a few friendly neighbours, bringing an added sense of connection and community.

It's amazing what a little encouragement, companionship, and movement can do! 🥰

Myth: Home care is only for the very ill
Truth: Home care isn’t just for those who are very sick.

At Home Instead Braintree, we support people in so many ways:

Companionship – sharing a cuppa, a chat, or a day out.

Help around the house – light cleaning, cooking, or laundry.

Confidence and safety – a little help with daily routines or getting out and about.

Many of our clients are active, independent, and simply enjoy a helping hand or a friendly face.
Home care is about living life to the fullest at every stage – not just when things get tough.

Cognitive stimulation therapy offers a ray of hope for our loved ones facing memory and thinking challenges caused by dementia. By engaging in various stimulating activities like discussions, puzzles, music, and practical tasks, they can exercise their minds and potentially slow down cognitive decline. These sessions, typically conducted in small groups by skilled professionals, aim to stimulate thinking and memory.

Our trained Care Professionals can also help support them by providing cognitive stimulation on a one-to-one basis within the comfort of home. Word or number puzzles, when incorporated into daily routines, have shown promising results in enhancing memory, thinking, and overall cognitive abilities in individuals living with dementia. What matters most is engaging in brain-stimulating activities regularly.

With Home Instead Braintree, Halstead, Sudbury and Marks Tey, learn more about home care services that cater to your loved ones' cognitive wellbeing. Call our team on 01376 319 100 or visit homeinstead.co.uk/braintree today.
