Meet Care Co-ordinator – Georgia
Georgia is a Care Co-ordinator at Birchwood Care Services and has worked with the organisation for 10 months. She is undertaking on the job training and is currently working towards her Safe Handling of Medication accredited Level 2 – which all care staff are asked to complete – as well as their mandatory medication training and yearly updates.
The diversity of the job is something that Georgia enjoys, as no day is ever the same.
“I really enjoy working with the clients. I love hearing how they are and it is rewarding seeing them happy,” said Georgia.
Covid-19 has affected everyone in some way, and staff are still having to wear masks in the office and undertake weekly testing to keep themselves and the clients safe.
Animals are the key to unwinding for Georgia as she has two horses – Daisy and Spruce – and a dog called Zara. She also enjoys pizza and is looking forward to visiting Spain with her partner when things settle down.
You can meet a number of our fantastic staff and carers here on the website. We also introduced Domestic Support Worker, Mary, and Care Co-ordinator, Bethany.

- Rainy day activities: bringing the fun indoors!
2026 has got off to quite a rainy start! It’s been reported for being particularly wet and gloomy, and there’s a long history behind the UK’s (rainy) weather. Sometimes, when it rains this hard, we have a ‘lazy day’. We choose to stay inside, have more lie ins, and wrap up under a blanket. This can be a great way to recharge your batteries and get some much-needed rest. But what if it’s always raining? Long stretches of wet weather can cause low mood, reduced motivation, and a sense of isolation, especially when social gatherings start to get cancelled. To combat this, here’s some rainy-day activities designed to lift the mood and help make our days more fun: - Music for dementia care
Music is universally loved, and for good reason. It brings people together across cultures, languages, generations, and identities. For those with dementia, music can be particularly important. Music for dementia care offers support and an alternative form of communication. It can redirect moods, help set a routine, and evoke familiar memories. But why is it that music is so beneficial? And how can it help us connect with our loved ones? - Finding community at Christmas

There is no health without mental health. It’s something that impacts every day of our lives in how we think, feel, and act. And yet for years, it’s been placed under a stigma, and awareness of mental health has continually been scrutinised. - How can we help older people learn new technology?
Community-building can be changing. What once used to be a face-to-face connection is now expanding to more online settings; think FaceTime, virtual events, and Facebook groups. And with more than one in three people over 65 lacking the skills needed to use the internet, there’s a real danger that our older loved ones may be missing out on opportunities to connect with the world around them. Helping relatives learn new technology is not just a helpful thing to do, but is so important in combatting social isolation, and reducing loneliness. - Creating a dementia friendly home
Dementia can be scary, both for the person with a diagnosis, and for anyone affected by that diagnosis.
