We had a very special visitor at Oxendon House this week 🐾💛

Fawn the therapy dog came to spend time with our residents, and what a wonderful visit it was! From gentle cuddles to happy smiles all around, Fawn brought so much comfort, joy, and warmth to everyone she met.

Therapy dogs like Fawn don’t just brighten the day — they can have real benefits for health and wellbeing too. For residents living with dementia, time with a therapy dog can help reduce anxiety, encourage communication, and even spark memories. For others, the calming presence of a dog can lower stress levels, reduce feelings of loneliness, and support emotional wellbeing.

🎉 Fundraising Success for Flo! 🥾⛰️

We’re incredibly proud to share that Flo has completed her fundraising walk in the Peak District!

Starting at the ruins of Peveril Castle in Castleton, Flo set off across the moors on a 6-mile journey towards Mam Tor in the High Peak. She climbed all the way to the summit and reached the trig point, before continuing along the stunning Great Ridge and then making her way back down into Castleton.

Altogether, Flo walked for 4.5 hours, showing amazing determination and resilience along the way!

Thanks to the incredible support from everyone who donated, Flo has raised an amazing 🤩 £410 🤩for our activity fund! 👏

A huge well done to Flo and a big thank you to everyone who supported her — we truly appreciate it! 💙

A little bit of social time today with some board games, art work and word searches 🧠🎲
Today we started the day with some BBC sounds of the 60’s, that coupled with the sun beaming into our home, spirits were lifted ready for the day ahead ☀️🕶️
