🌿 World Mental Health Day Celebration! 🌿

Today we celebrated World Mental Health Day with a very special visitor — Cupcake the Therapy Pony! 🐴🧁

Cupcake trotted through our home, visiting residents both in the communal areas and in their rooms. Her gentle nature and friendly personality brought so many smiles, laughter, and moments of calm to everyone she met.

Animal therapy, especially with ponies like Cupcake, can have wonderful benefits for our residents — helping to reduce stress, spark joyful memories, and encourage social interaction, particularly for those living with dementia.

We also learned lots of fun facts about Cupcake the Shetland pony — and we’re already looking forward to her next visit! 💛

🎵 The Power of Music for Dementia Patients 💜

A huge thank you for Trevor for attending yesterday afternoon we had so much fun🥳

Did you know that singing can do wonders for people living with dementia?
Music reaches parts of the brain that remain active even in later stages of the disease — helping to spark memories, lift moods, and create moments of real connection.

✨ Here are just a few benefits of singing for dementia patients:

🧠 Memory Stimulation: Familiar songs can unlock long-term memories and encourage conversation.

💬 Improved Communication: Singing can help patients express themselves even when words are hard to find.

💓 Emotional Well-Being: Music releases feel-good hormones like dopamine, reducing anxiety and depression.

👥 Social Connection: Group singing brings joy, laughter, and a sense of belonging.

🚶‍♀️ Physical Engagement: Gentle movement and rhythm support coordination and relaxation.

Whether it’s joining a music therapy group, humming along to old favorites, or singing together at home — these moments of music can make a world of difference. 🎶

Let’s keep the music playing for those we love. 💜

🍕 Cooking Up Independence at Five Rivers! 🍕

Here at Five Rivers, we love giving our residents the opportunity to showcase their kitchen talents and enjoy the everyday activities they’ve always loved. Recently, our residents got creative making their very own pizzas — choosing from a delicious range of toppings before baking them to perfection.

The best part? Sitting down together to enjoy their tasty creations with their evening tea! 🫖✨

It’s wonderful to see everyone having fun, staying independent, and sharing smiles over good food and great company. ❤️

🚤 A Relaxing River Adventure with The Baldwin Trust!

On Friday, our residents enjoyed a wonderful boat trip with The Baldwin Trust. Despite the grey skies, nothing could dampen our spirits as we cruised along the River Soar from Thurmaston to Cossington and back.

Everyone sat back and relaxed during the four-hour journey, sharing smiles, laughter, and stories that brought back many fond memories. 😄

While on board, residents enjoyed a delicious selection of sandwiches, soups, hot drinks, and snacks, all while taking in the peaceful scenery. We even spotted plenty of ducks and cows along the way! 🦆🐮

A big thank you to The Baldwin Trust for such a memorable day — we’re already looking forward to our next trip! 💛
