💙 THEY DID IT! 🏔️

5 hours. One very windy mountain. A muddy slip. Countless laughs. And over £1,200 raised for the Alzheimer’s Society. 💙
A huge congratulations to Vicki and Rachel, who took on the mighty Snowdon and made it to the top (and back!) in true fundraising style.

The weather didn’t hold back! It was wild, windy, and yes, there may have been an unexpected slide through the mud 😅 but they pushed through with determination, grit, and great humour.

They’ve raised over £1,200 to help fund life-changing research and support for people affected by dementia. An amazing achievement for a cause close to so many hearts.
There is still time to donate here: https://www.justgiving.com/page/vicki-jones-3?utm_medium=FR&utm_source=CL

📸 Swipe through the photos for windswept smiles, muddy boots, and two women who absolutely smashed it.

Vicki and Rachel, we’re so proud of you. You would climb a mountain for others, quite literally.💙

✨ The Power of Networking ✨

Yesterday, our Registered Manager, Vicki Jones, attended the Staffordshire Managers Quality Network Forum – a fantastic reminder of just how valuable networking can be!

The day was also a great opportunity for Vicki to put faces to names and make new connections and reconnect with some familiar faces too.

She came away feeling really positive about the opportunities and collaborations that can grow from events like this. After all, networking isn’t just about swapping details – it’s about building relationships, sharing ideas, and creating partnerships that truly make a difference.

A big thank you to everyone who made the day so productive and inspiring 🙌 Staffordshire County Council
