Bluebird Care Partners with Seal Primary for a Heart-warming Letter Exchange
Bluebird Care Sevenoaks is delighted to be working in partnership with Seal Church of England Primary School on an intergenerational letter exchange project. Facilitated by Anthony Brown, a Year 4 English teacher at Seal Primary School, the initiative has connected 11 pupils with Bluebird Care customers, fostering meaningful communication across generations. Through letter writing, pupils have had the opportunity to develop their writing skills while learning about the lives, hobbies, and histories of older members of their community. Likewise, our customers have enjoyed engaging with young minds, proving that age is never a barrier to connection and communication. This rewarding experience has brought joy and enrichment to both the pupils and our customers, strengthening community ties and encouraging valuable intergenerational friendships. Bluebird Care Sevenoaks is proud to support initiatives that promote learning, empathy, and shared experiences between different generations.
Community Gardening with Sevenoaks Rotary Club
Bluebird Care Sevenoaks is proud to support local community initiatives, and recently, team members Amy and Della volunteered with the Sevenoaks Rotary Club to help with gardening at a local care home. Their efforts focused on preparing trugs, ensuring that once completed, residents would have the opportunity to plant flowers and vegetables themselves. This hands-on project not only helps beautify the care home’s outdoor space but also promotes engagement and activity among residents. By working alongside the Rotary Club, Bluebird Care Sevenoaks continues to support meaningful community interactions and enhance the well-being of older individuals through social and environmental initiatives.
Supporting Dementia Friends: Raising Awareness and Understanding
Every three minutes, someone in the UK develops dementia. With cases on the rise, communities across the country are coming together to create a more dementia-friendly society—and Bluebird Care Sevenoaks is proud to play a part. We are pleased to support 'Dementia Friends,' an initiative led by the Alzheimer’s Society to raise awareness and educate people on how to support those living with dementia. By fostering understanding and equipping individuals with the knowledge to make a difference, we are helping to build a more compassionate and inclusive community. Through our involvement, we aim to ensure that more people recognise the challenges faced by those with dementia and take small, meaningful actions to support them in everyday life.
