Sleep is as important for our health as our diets and exercise, yet we often cut it short.

Follow these 5 tips to get the most out of it:
1. Whilst the length of sleep is important (aim for 7-9 hrs a night) but quality of sleep is important too. Improve sleep quality by removing distractions from your bedroom, avoiding caffeine late in the day.
2. Sleep consistency is important - going to bed and waking up at the same time each day (even on weekends or kids’ holidays) can improve how restorative your sleep is. Keep lie-ins less than 1 hour.
3. Stop snoozing! Each time you fall back to sleep, you initiate a new sleep cycle which takes 90 mins to complete, so breaking it by another alarm 10 mins later is added stress on your body
4. Keep your bedroom cool - your body needs to drop its temperature to initiate and maintain sleep
5. Screen time before bed has similar effects to drinking coffee on the brain. Avoid screens and blue light in the hour before sleep.

This year I’ve partnered with Bupa to bring you evidence based health information, that you can trust - for more sleep tips, check out Bupa’s website and the Bupa Health YouTube channel!

Throwback to a picnic-theme event at Erskine Hall.

To celebrate 40 years of care, sounds delightful!

Picture a sunny afternoon in a decorated garden where residents, their relatives, and colleagues to mingle and share memories.

The lively notes of a live trumpet performance fill the air, creating a festive and nostalgic vibe- a few classic tunes and jazzy melody that get toes tapping. The food spread:
Savory pastries, vibrant dessert table and freshly served ice cream in various flavours, keeping everyone cool and happy. It’s a heartwarming way to honor four decades of care, bringing together the care home community for laughter, connection, and celebration.

Thank you to everyone who has joined us in this special celebration.
