🌟 Volunteer Week 🌟

We’re celebrating the amazing ways our Reablement staff support their communities beyond work 💙

Gemma, a Senior Support Worker in the West Team, volunteers with an Under 17 Car Club, helping young people build confidence, awareness and essential road safety skills.
“I was signed up by my daughter – three years later, I’m still loving it! It’s so rewarding to help young people grow in confidence and skills.”

Supporting independence and confidence is at the heart of Reablement – both in work and in the wider community.

👏 Thank you to all our staff who volunteer in their own time!

💡 What is Reablement?

Reablement is a short-term, specialist adult social care service that supports individuals to regain skills, rebuild confidence, and remain independent in their own homes.

The service is delivered by Occupational Therapists and the Reablement Provider Service. The Provider Service is the team that delivers the day-to-day support in people’s homes, working closely with individuals to practise tasks, build confidence and achieve their goals.

Rather than carrying out tasks on someone’s behalf, Reablement teams encourage and enable people to do things for themselves wherever possible, promoting long-term independence and reducing the need for ongoing support.

✅ Person-centred approach
✅ Focus on strengths and independence
✅ Supporting people to live safely at home

Our aim is to deliver positive outcomes by helping people regain independence and confidence following illness, injury or a change in circumstances. 💜

🚶‍♂️ National Walking Month 🚶‍♂️

May is National Walking Month, a great reminder that sometimes the simplest steps can make the biggest difference. Walking is a free, easy way to stay active, supporting both physical health and mental wellbeing. Even a short daily walk can help boost fitness, improve mood, and support independence.

In Reablement, we see every day how small steps can lead to greater confidence, mobility and independence at home 💜

Whether it’s a gentle stroll, walking to the shops, or getting out in the fresh air – every step counts 👣

💡 Why not challenge yourself this May to:
• Take a short walk each day
• Get outside and enjoy the spring weather 🌷
• Walk with a friend, family member, or colleague

Let’s keep moving and support each other to stay active, healthy and independent 💜
