Pumpkin Carving at Poppy Dementia Day Support. 🎃

We hope everyone had a lovely evening, however they chose to spend it.

Whether that was carving pumpkins, watching a favourite film, heading out trick or treating or enjoying a quiet evening at home with a sign on the door asking visitors not to knock.

Halloween can look different for everyone, and that's absolutely fine! What's important is enjoying the occasion (or choosing not to celebrate) in a way that feels comfortable and right for you and those around you.

Happy Halloween, everyone. 🎃

Halloween movie day at Poppy Dementia Day Support. 🍿

The people we support at Poppy enjoyed a Halloween movie day with tasty snacks and refreshments.

Everyone had the opportunity to choose which film they wanted to watch, with staff using visual communication aids to support them in making their own choices.

The group voted for Casper and enjoyed a lovely afternoon watching the film together. 👻

At Poppy, we take a person-centred approach to everything we do, ensuring the people we support are involved in decisions about their day and have the opportunity to choose activities based on their own interests and preferences.

Poppy Dementia Day Support is based at the Humphrey Booth Resource Centre in Swinton. It provides a safe, welcoming and specially designed environment for people with moderate to advanced dementia.

A big thank you to Swinton Fire Station!

It was great to welcome the team from Swinton Fire Station back to St George’s Community Hub for their annual visit, where they shared important advice about Bonfire Night and how to stay safe.

As always, everyone enjoyed the visit, especially getting the chance to look around the fire engine and sit in the front.

A huge thank you to the firefighters for taking the time to visit us each year. ❤️🚒

Lots of pink across our services. 💗

The people we support and staff have been getting involved in Wear It Pink activities to raise awareness of breast cancer.

There’s been lots going on, including pink bingo, karaoke, quizzes, baking and arts and crafts!

A special mention to Andrew, who raised money by wearing his pink pyjamas all day. 💕

Well done to everyone at Brierley, Poppy and across our other services who got involved and helped raise awareness of breast cancer.
