Hide AdStudies have shown that almost 1.5 million older people feel lonelier at Christmas than any other time of year*. To help tackle loneliness, Care UK has launched its Care to Share initiative, designed to support older people through the festive season.
More than 100 Care UK homes nationwide will be taking part to give older members of the community a safe and sociable space where they can enjoy some festive fun and good company – whether it’s singing along to Christmas carols or watching a Christmas movie with a mince pie.
At Jubilee House, the team have been hard at work spreading Christmas cheer and arranging a festive afternoon where local people can share their memories and favourite things about Christmas over a mince pie and mulled wine in the home’s lounge.
