Support residents' wishes to come true

Each care home has a wishing tree, and when a resident hangs a wish on the tree, the care home team goes above and beyond to try and grant it. These wishes can be big or small. One resident achieved his lifelong wish to skydive, and our colleagues not only organised the whole day out, but also joined him!
