Our Stories

Big Lunch

Each Wednesday we provide a communal hot meal at Bloom House for the people we support and staff. This is an opportunity for people to socialise and , perhaps, try a food that they haven't tasted before. We also provide free fruit throughout the week and some treats for the resident squirrel. Caitlin, with help from her Support Worker, does a four week menu plan and she has become really confident juggling the many tasks involved in cooking for and serving large numbers of people. Pasta is always a favourite and almost everyone tried the haggis on Burns Day.

Caitlin tries to use produce from the garden as much as possible. The weather has been against us this year but our gardeners, Angela and Mike, are making big plans for next year.

Duty Of Candour

The organisational duty of candour procedure is a legal duty which sets out how organisations should tell those affected that an unintended or unexpected incident appears to have caused harm or death. We are required to apologise and to meaningfully involve them in a review of what happened.

I can confirm that there have been no Duty of Candour incidents during 2023
