Our amazing staff came together this week to raise money for children in need, and we couldn’t be more proud. 💛

Out and about at New College Durham!

Over the last few weeks, members of our team visited Health and Social level 4 and 5 students at New College Durham to share their knowledge and experience across a range of important topics in Health and Social Care.

Jill talked all about Leadership and Management theories and how these apply in real working environments.
Rob delivered a session on Cancer and its impacts on the human body.
Katie discussed the Principles of Personal Development and why ongoing growth and reflection are so important in Health and Social Care.

It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with future professionals, share real-world experiences and hopefully inspire the next generation in Health and Social Care!

A big thank you to New College Durham for welcoming our team and giving us the opportunity to share our insights with the next generation of professionals!

🎆🔥 Happy Bonfire Night from all of us at Supportive! 🔥🎆

As the skies light up tonight, we're reminding everyone- especially our valued clients and their families- to enjoy the celebrations safely. 💛

Our dedicated carers will be out as usual, providing support and companionship, and ensuring that those we care for feel safe and comforted amidst the bangs and sparkles of the evening. 👩‍⚕️🏡

Here are a few Bonfire Night safety tips:
✔️ Keep pets and vulnerable loved ones calm and indoors
✔️ Close windows and curtains to reduce noise
✔️ Avoid setting off fireworks near homes or care visits
✔️ Enjoy organised displays where possible—it’s safer and more spectacular!

Let’s keep our communities warm, safe, and cared for tonight. 💥
Stay safe, and have a sparkling Bonfire Night! ✨

👨🏻👴🏼 It’s Movember at Supportive! 🖤
This month, we're raising awareness for men’s health- from mental wellbeing to prostate and testicular cancer- because taking care of others starts with taking care of ourselves.

In domiciliary care, we often support men who might not always speak up about how they’re feeling. That’s why we're encouraging conversations, regular check-ins, and a reminder that it's okay to talk- no stiff upper lips here. 💬🧡

Whether you’re growing a ‘mo, donating, or simply checking in with a mate, every action helps. Let’s support the men in our lives- clients, carers, dads, brothers, friends- with compassion and care. 💪👨‍⚕️

Stay healthy. Stay strong. And if you're growing a moustache... share your pics below! 👨🏻‍🦰👇

🎃👻 Happy Halloween from all us at Supportive! 👻🎃

Wishing all our wonderful clients, families, and care staff a spooky, safe, and joy-filled Halloween! 🧡🕷️

Our amazing carers are out in the community today with smiles (and maybe a few cobwebs!) delivering not just essential care- but a little festive cheer too! Whether it’s a Halloween-themed cuppa ☕, a pumpkin window decoration 🎃, or simply a warm conversation, we’re making today special in the little ways that matter most.

To all our clients: you are boo-tiful inside and out. 💜
To our care staff: you're the real superheroes- no costume needed. 🦸‍♀️🦸‍♂️

Stay safe, stay warm, and have a fang-tastic Halloween!
