💜 World Elder Abuse Awareness Day 2026�
“Safeguarding Starts at the Table”

Today, our team came together to highlight how dignity, nutrition, and hydration are key to safeguarding older people.

From interactive food and hydration stations to awareness displays and purple-themed support, it was a powerful reminder that safeguarding is part of everyday care.

A big thank you to everyone who helped bring the day to life 💜
