Rownhams Manor Care Home Residents and Team Take on ‘Walk 1K a Day Challenge’ for Dementia UK

3 February 2025 Rownhams Manor

Rownhams Manor is proud to announce its participation in the Dementia UK ‘Walk 1K a Day Challenge’ this February. Residents and team members alike are stepping up to raise funds and awareness for Dementia UK, while promoting the importance of physical activity and community spirit within the home.

Staying active offers numerous benefits for both physical and mental wellbeing, particularly for older adults. Regular movement can boost mood, enhance mobility, and foster social connections – making this challenge the perfect opportunity for Rownhams Manor to combine health promotion with a cause close to many hearts.

Throughout the month, the team and residents will be tracking their progress and sharing weekly updates, highlighting the determination and enthusiasm of everyone involved. Their efforts aim not only to raise funds but also to inspire others in the community to stay active and support families living with dementia.

Samantha Squibb, General Manager at Rownhams Manor, said:

“We are thrilled to be part of the Walk 1K a Day Challenge for Dementia UK. This initiative brings our residents and team together with a shared goal – staying active, fostering connections, and supporting an incredibly important cause. Dementia affects so many families, and every step we take is a step towards better support and care for those who need it most. I couldn’t be prouder of the enthusiasm and dedication our team and residents have shown.”

The Rownhams Manor community is inviting friends, families, and supporters to cheer them on and contribute to their fundraising efforts.
