Residents from Borough Care’s Silverdale home in Bredbury, Stockport, recently enjoyed a cruise on the canal. Residents travelled by barge from Marple to Poynton, joined by family members and staff. During the trip, refreshments were served and there was even a stop off for ice cream.
Everyone had a great day out, with one resident in particular thrilled with the day. The lady had never been on a barge before, so really enjoyed every minute of the trip. As residents were joined by their families, it was a great way for people to create memories and spend time together doing something a little different.

Research shows there are proven health and wellbeing benefits of continuing to get outdoors as you get older, and Borough Care is committed to enabling its residents to do so.
