TEN team members and supporters of the Surrey-based maritime charity, The Royal Alfred Seafarers’ Society, are gearing up to take on the Tough Mudder challenge this weekend.
They aim to raise £5,000 to further enhance the lives of residents at the Society’s care home, Belvedere House.
The funds will go towards a new interactive screen that will revolutionise activities for residents, offering a range of functions, including games, arts and video calls.
The Society recently unveiled a specialised sensory room designed for residents living with dementia. Implementing the new screen will complement this facility, further supporting activities that stimulate, engage and enhance the cognitive skills of Belvedere House residents.
David Dominy, CEO of The Royal Alfred Seafarers Society, said: “I’m incredibly proud of our team for taking on this challenge. Their dedication to improving our residents’ lives is truly inspiring. This interactive screen will be a fantastic addition that assists us to further personalise care to our residents’ needs, preferences and interests. We aim to build on our experience in delivering high-quality care to ageing seafarers and continue providing the best possible support for our residents through innovative solutions.”
