St Oswalds House

brighterkind homes across the UK are celebrating Mother’s Day in style, enjoying special afternoon teas, pamper sessions, lunches and treats with loved ones.

Announcing brighterkind's CREATE Challenge!

Following on from the creative workshop training that all our homes Magic Moments Club Coordinators have received, all brighterkind homes and residents will be getting involved in a creative inter-home challenge and a little bit of friendly competition! 

From 26-28th January, brighterkind care homes across the UK took part in RSPB's Big Garden Birdwatch 2019.

Throughout December, residents at brighterkind care homes enjoyed special activities and events to celebrate the festive season and all the joy which surrounds it.

Christmas is a time for enjoying the company of family and friends, delicious food and drink, music, dancing and festivities - and that’s certainly what we did! Every one of our care homes has enjoyed a busy seasonal calendar, including festive trips out, pantomimes, carol concerts, craft activities, Christmas parties, visits from our local schools and members of our community (including some very sweet Reindeer and Miniature ponies), and of course a chance to meet Father Christmas who came bearing gifts galore!

On 7th December, brighterkind homes up and down the country channelled their Inner Elves and donned their best elf costumes in a bid to raise as much money as they can for the Alzheimer's Society. 

Three members of the brighterkind team have been selected for the finals categories in the National Care Awards 2018.

Laura Smith  is a finalist in the category of 'Care Registered Nurse 2018' Elaine Norman from Hungerford Care Home is up for 'Care Housekeeper 2018' and Denver Naguit from Kingsmills Care Home has been shortlisted for 'Care Champion 2018'. 

Join us at brighterkind care homes to celebrate past and present talents

Throughout October 2018  

All welcome.

Whether your thing is baking or bowling, soccer or saxophone, we are celebrating past and present talents. Come along and join in the fun!

Welcome to the new edition of our company bright ideas magazine. It's packed full of stories, information and photos from right across brighterkind. We hope you enjoy this edition.

As part of our new Magic Moments Sporting Programme, brighterkind team members are attending workshops, which have been designed in partnership with Oomph! Wellness and key National sports governing bodies. The aim is to make exercise as engaging as possible, to encourage as many less active or able people as possible to take up physical activity and try something new - or rediscover lost passions.
