Thursday 8th May 2025 is the 80th Anniversary of VE Day

Many of our clients were either serving in the war or have memories of living through the war, so it can be a good topic of discussion when we’re getting to know them.
We’ve heard some amazing stories of people’s experiences during the war and how they celebrated VE Day.
Getting to know a client and finding topics of conversation to have with them is a crucial part of what we do, especially if we are undertaking a care assessment or a mental capacity assessment.
Our team are skilled and experienced at finding the best way to communicate with the elderly and having good topics to focus on, such as VE Day, is really helpful and can start conversations and jog memories, even for people living with dementia.
If you have elderly relatives or neighbours who lived through the war, why not spend some time talking with them about it today, asking them to recount some of their memories.
