🚬 Stoptober is back again for its 11th year! 🚬

This yearly event launched by the NHS promotes the idea that if you can quit for 28 days, you are five times more likely to give up smoking for good. Incredible stats! 💪🏻 👏🏻

We’ve lost several clients to smoking related illnesses so we desperately want to help anyone who wants to quit for good!

Not sure where to start? Call us today on 01273 492629 for helpful information and where to go for advice on how to quit this Stoptober 💪🏻 🚬 🚫❌

🎃 A quick & easy pumpkin pie recipe to fill you up and keep you healthy this autumn! 🥧

So many of our clients say they miss baking so we’re using this simple recipe to ignite the baking bug again in our clients!
Don’t skip the spices - cinnamon is rich in antioxidants, it’s anti inflammatory and supports heart health! ♥️ 💪🏻 Ginger is great for digestion, boosting immunity and lowering blood sugars!

Ingredients: 🥧
1 (9 inch) single crust shop bought or homemade pastry
3 large eggs
100g granulated sugar
65g light brown sugar
450g homemade pumpkin puree
175ml whipping cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

Cooking instructions: 📝
PREPARE CRUST
Roll out half of the pie dough on a floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Roll from the centre outwards for even thickness.

Place the dough into the pie dish and trim the edges to within 1 inch of the dish. Pop in the fridge while you prepare your filling.

PUMPKIN PIE FILLING: 🎃
Whisk the eggs and both sugars together until smooth. Add homemade pumpkin puree, cream, vanilla, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt. Whisk until well blended.

BAKE THE PIE:
Preheat the oven to 220°C
Place the pie dish on your baking sheet and pour the pumpkin filling into the pie shell.
Bake the pumpkin pie at 220°C for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 190°C and bake for 35 to 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean!

Simple as that! Enjoy 😉 🥧 🎃

Having dementia doesn't mean you have to stop doing the things you enjoy.
There are all sorts of activities you can do – physical, mental, social and creative – that help you to live well with dementia and improve wellbeing.
Follow a routine ⏰Daily or weekly practices like regular lunch outings can reduce anxiety
Take a car ride 🚙 Simple activities such as a short car journey can provide welcome respite
Watch an old movie 🎥 This can remind your loved one of a time when they felt comfortable
Listen to music 🎵 Favourite songs can help connect to them
Flowers 💐 Fresh flowers or plants can help brighten their day
Help write a letter 💌Help to express feelings to family and friends.

If you care for someone who has dementia, a shared activity can make both of you happier and able to enjoy quality time together.
You can continue with the activities you already enjoy, though they may take longer than they used to, or try new activities.

If you or a family member or friend need any help with these kind of activities then give us a call on 01273 492629 ☎️ we would love to help you 💖

Happy Monday, have a lovely week💫

We want to say a huge and heartfelt thank you to Henfield Home Checks, who so kindly sponsored the first challenge of 100 sit-ups every day in January!

This sponsorship is particularly close to Anne Dewdney's heart, as Henfield Home Checks play an important role in her and Rohan’s life. Their team provides trusted home visits and wellbeing checks, offering support and reassurance for those who need an extra helping hand - something Anne knows the true value of. They regularly check in on Rohan, giving Anne peace of mind, knowing he is safe and well cared for.

Services range from daily welfare visits and medication prompts to cooked meals and companionship outings, making them an invaluable lifeline for many in our community. Like Henfield Haven, they are all about care, trust and looking out for others, which makes their sponsorship even more meaningful.

We are beyond grateful for their support and also for the kindness and care they show every day. Thank you very much Henfield Home Checks, for everything you do!🤩

You can find out more about their services at www.sussexhomechecks.co.uk
