Regular walks encourage Residents to reminisceResidents at HC-One’s Jack Dormand Care Home in Peterlee, County Durham, look forward to their weekly fresh spring walks with the Wellbeing Co-Ordinator.

Residents, Hazel Callum and Martin Hall, love Thursday’s and Friday’s when Donna Price, Wellbeing Co-ordinator at Jack Dormand, is in as they tend to go for a nice walk together, enjoying the fresh air and chatting about the lovely memories that it brings back. 

On Thursday, they took a trip to Crimdon Dene where they enjoyed a beautiful walk and watched the waves, stopping to talk about the great memories that brought back.

The next day, they enjoyed a walk through Horden Welfare Park where they looked at the beautiful flowers and stopped to take a photo with the Iron Pitman.

Donna commented:

“It was so lovely to hear Martin's stories as he reminisced and to see both him and Hazel enjoying being in the outdoors.”

Hazel commented:

“I love getting out for these walks and getting some fresh air.”
