This is your reminder to stretch! 🧡

It’s easy to find ourselves sat down, hunched for long periods of time - so this is your sign to sit up and stretch! 🙆‍♀️

You might notice a stiffness in your shoulder blades or neck. If you can incorporate something as simple as shoulder-shrugs or head rotations, you can wake up the muscles we so often forget to you. 🧡🙌

How do you choose to stretch? Let us know! 👇

What is live-in care? 🤔

With live-in care, a specially chosen Walfinch carer moves into your home to provide ongoing and flexible support. 🧡

This may come in the form of companionship and practical support with your day-to-day lifestyle. At Walfinch, we believe you care should fit you – not the other way around. 🙌

That’s why we offer our clients this entirely personalised and tailored option for care, helping you and your family with the reassurance that your needs are constantly met. 👏

New Year, more opportunities to Thrive. We’ve all made our individual New Year’s resolutions… but did you know Walfinch could help you achieve them? 🙌

If you promised yourself to:

🌟 Become more active
🌟 See more family and friends
🌟 Gain better control over your health
🌟 Enjoy more days out
🌟 Restart an old hobby (or take on a new one!)
🌟 Enjoy your local community more often
🌟 Go on holiday, without the worry
🌟 Take your rehabilitation exercises more seriously

…Or anything else, having an extra pair of hands can make a huge difference. Whether you want specialist support, or just someone to chat to, we are able to help on both an hourly and live-in basis.

2026 is the year you go from just surviving, to truly Thriving. We’re ready when you are! 🧡

Only one more sleep ‘til Christmas! 🤩 Then tomorrow it’s good food, good company, a little bit of bubbly, and a LOT of laughing! 🍾

Have you made Christmas plans with family or friends? Or maybe you prefer Christmas as a time for reflection.

However you Thrive at Christmas, Walfinch is here to support our clients throughout the festive period. 🧡🎄

We have staff available for some extra support both tomorrow and after the 25th. Because, to us, Christmas should be your chance to Thrive! 🙌

Christmas is a busy time of year; shopping to be sorted, cards to be posted, kids to be… at home. It’s easy to forget why you’re doing it all…

If you or your loved one struggles to keep up with the festive mayhem, make time to enjoy the festivities at your own pace. Some Christmas activities include:

🎁 Giftwrapping and card writing
🎁 Christmas baking
🎁 Decorating the house

These can all be done in a shared space, or from the comfort of your own home - with additional support from Walfinch, if needed. 🙌

Remember, if you look past the twinkly lights, the cheesy music, and the shopping sprees, being together is the most important thing about Christmas.

Those together, Thrive better. 💝

Thriving is better, done together! 😌

Our Managing Director, Sarah Wickham, recently completed the Thrive Academy, with the Walfinch NSO Team. 👏

The Academy was a week-long course, with a series of insightful (and intensive!) workshops - helping Managing Directors with the future of their branches. 🙌

Love it! 🏆

You don’t need to be able to play like Andy Murray for it to be a thriving addition to your life! 🏆
