This week’s #ThankYouThursday goes to everyone who helped create our new finger food menu 🥕 This menu has been specifically designed to support people living with dementia by providing them with meals that don't require cutlery, allowing for independence, dignity and respect 💙 Forget-Me-Not Dementia Service Manager Molly Baldini said: "I am so happy to see this menu coming to light and grateful for all the teams who have supported me to get it ready! Food is so important when it comes to recovery, and having something smaller can encourage patients with dementia to eat more and to get better more quickly". A huge thank you to everyone involved!

We are incredibly proud to be one of the sites of the successful pilot for Martha's Rule as being widely reported in UK news today.
