Home Instead Leigh

20/10/2025

Today we’re at our local Morrisons in Leigh spreading awareness about the Don’t Miss the Moment campaign, helping our community learn to recognise the early signs of dementia so that support, care, and effective measures can be put in place as early as possible.

A huge thank you to Danielle, the Community Champion here at Morrisons, for her continued support and for displaying our campaign materials in store. 🙌

Together we can make a real difference. By spotting the signs early we can help preserve precious memories and improve quality of life.

📍 Pop in to Morrisons Leigh to find out more, pick up a leaflet, or chat with us about how you can get involved.

🌟 Let’s Make Christmas Magical for Local Children! 🌟

This year, I’m organising a Toy Collection to support Daffodils Dreams an incredible Wigan based charity that has, for the past 7 years, delivered Christmas Eve Boxes to children in need across our local community.

🎄 Together, we can make sure every child wakes up with a smile this Christmas.

We’re collecting new, unwrapped toys and gifts for children of all ages from toddlers to teens, which will be added to Daffodils Dreams’ Christmas Eve boxes.

🧸 How You Can Help:

Drop off your donation at one of our collection points (list coming soon!)

Share this post to help spread the word

If you’re a local business or school, get in touch if you’d like to host a drop-off box or take part as a sponsor

Every toy, book, or gift makes a difference 💛

📦 Donations will be collected until December 10th, ready for delivery to Daffodils Dreams in time for Christmas Eve.

Let’s come together and show just how strong our community can be.

🚫 Myth-Busting Dementia Together 🚫

Myth 1: Dementia is just a normal part of ageing.
Fact: Dementia is not a natural part of getting older. While age is a risk factor, dementia is caused by diseases that damage the brain.

💜 With early support and understanding, people can continue to live fulfilling lives.

Myth 2: People with dementia can’t enjoy life anymore.
Fact: With the right support, people living with dementia can still enjoy hobbies, relationships, and meaningful moments every day.

🌟 Support helps make those moments possible – for them and their families.

Myth 3: Nothing can be done once someone has dementia.
Fact: While there is no cure, support, therapies, and community care can greatly improve quality of life. Small changes and patience make a big difference.

🤝 Together, we can provide hope, dignity, and comfort.
