UPDATE - Following our recommendations, we were pleased to hear that Caton House have since:

  • Started to recruit Resident Ambassadors to focus on providing one-to-one social engagement and company for residents confined to their rooms.
  • Extended the activities programme to include weekend opportunities for social interaction.
  • Sought the provision of a taxi service (paid for by Sanctuary Care) to allow residents to go on trips, including afternoon tea at the local Church.
