COVID-19 UPDATE

Later Life Living has had to temporarily close in line with Government Guidelines due to the COVID-19 outbreak. As soon as we are able to, we will re-open allowing your ‘cared for’ to either return or be welcomed into our care as a new member.

Those who are with us know that we offer a safe, warm, secure and very caring environment with a wide range of activities to keep your ‘cared for’ entertained, motivated and stimulated with confidence. For those who don’t know us, please feel free to call in or phone or email to arrange to meet us all when we reopen.  We are very much looking forward to opening our doors again and allowing your loved ones to be looked after and cared for whilst you have a very much deserved, possibly needed, break.

Our hearts go out to all of those whose lives have been affected by this pandemic and we would also like to take this opportunity to thank all of the NHS staff and front line workers who do an amazing job by putting their lives at risk on a daily basis.

If you need any support during this very difficult time then please don’t suffer in silence; we are here to help and we are still taking your phone calls and emails, even if it’s just for a chat.

You can reach us by phone (07731 795 418), email (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) or Facebook.

Larkhill Dementia Cafe Dates

We also run the Larkhill Dementia Cafe - a voluntary organisation for anyone affected by dementia or memory problems.

It is held twice a month on Saturdays 10am-12pm (£3 per person) at The Larkhill Centre, Thorley Lane, Timperley (WA15 7AZ) for carers and cared for.

For anyone affected by dementia/memory problems in order to maintain community contact, social inclusion and receive support.

Please note that this is currently closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We will update you when we can reopen.

April 2019

 

We received a very touching and heartwarming testimonial from Stacey Nealon, daughter of one of our clients Sylvia

 

My mum Sylvia attended later life living for 6 years. It was the highlight of her day the purpose of her getting up and dressed every day. The stimulation and entertainment she received was second to none. It started with a chance leaflet that my mother in law got.....and the rest is history. She also loved the Dementia cafe run by Kyra & Dawn. Syl is a sucker for live music and a dance and... you can guarantee you get that at Larkhill. Unfortunately Sylvia is now at the level of care where she requires a care home, and although she doesn’t know who I am anymore, she never fails to talk about “her day centre” and the “lovely Kyra”. Thank you for all the years Sylvia spent with you and your continued advice during the difficult last 6 months.

We received this card in March 2019 in response to our Christmas gift from J. Arnold. 

 

 

4th December - Well we have started distributing £5 notes in Sale Moor, Altrincham and Timperley Village. Some people said they didn't need one, some said they would pass it on, some were extremely grateful and some gave it back to me to give to someone else. I have had hugs, kisses, a biscuit, and prayers said for me. What a blessing!! Merry Christmas.

23rd March - We had the pleasure of a Health and Social Care student, Jordan, who has been on placement with us. This is what she said about us:

My week on placement at Later Life Living has been so enjoyable and I have had a great week experiencing what the service users get up to when they attend for the day. It is such a happy and friendly environment for everyone to be in and I hope I get the chance to visit again soon.

 

2nd March - Kyra and Dawn would like to thank Monica Moore and family for their very kind donation of £110 given in memory of Monica's brother Paul, who recently passed. We plan to make one of our raised borders into a small garden of remembrance to commemorate Paul.

Letter from The Queen!

July 2016 

Thank you to everyone who has donated to the Jacob's Gift appeal, didn't we do well!

June 2016

A big thank you to everyone who has donated to the Jacob's Gift appeal so far... What a wonderful start for our first week of collecting!
We at Later Life Living, 2 Bordley Walk, Northern Moor (Monday to Friday 9am - 3.30pm) are a drop off point for anyone wishing to donate anything for Jacob's Gift Appeal.

Jacob's Gift

Jacob is a little boy with Crohn's disease. He and others are often in hospital for months at a time and the hospital has no funding for arts and crafts so Jacob's mum is (as she did last year) collecting any arts and crafts materials from anyone that may have anything to donate. All donations will go to the Starlight Ward at Wythenshawe Hospital.

Later Life Living Day Club for the Over 50's is a collection point to drop off any donated items. We already have two boxes full of art and crafts materials that we, at Later Life Living, and our lovely clients have donated. 

If you have anything you would like to donate please feel free to contact us. Thank you!

Helping to celebrate the Queen's 90th Birthday at Larkhill Dementia Cafe...
