As we get older there is a natural tendency to slow down and become less mobile. However for residents of Care Homes this can be a problem.
At Bunkers Hill we believe that keeping active has a range of benefits. Which is why we recently welcomed a company called Move It Mobility.
They are a local business that delivers engaging and fun chair-based exercise sessions, seated recreational games and musical movements sessions into both care homes for the elderly and for those with mental and physical disabilities.
The benefits of these sessions are:
• Maintaining mobility levels
• Maintaining range of joint motion
• Decreasing social isolation issues
• Reducing stress levels, depression and anxiety.
• To participate in a fun and humorous atmosphere
Our residents thoroughly enjoyed the session they provided and are looking forward to seeing them come back to the home again.
