Borough Care has been raising money for the Alzheimer’s Society by participating in the charity’s Cupcake Day. Staff at the company’s head office, along with staff and residents at Shepley House in Hazel Grove, Silverdale in Bredbury and Lisburne Court in Offerton all enjoyed a selection of cakes during the fundraising day.
Borough Care raised £165 for the dementia charity. Dementia prevalence rates are higher in Stockport than the national average, with over 4000 people in the borough estimated to have the condition.
It has over 20 years of experience supporting people with dementia; nine of its 11 homes are specialist dementia care homes. The company offers dementia support through a range of services, including residential care, active recovery and day care provision.
Borough Care believes good dementia care is about creating a positive and flexible culture that supports and respects people. The company is committed to understanding the uniqueness of the people affected by dementia and the individual support they and their families need.
