We've had a lovely time at Downey House this afternoon! Our carers appreciated the chance to connect & share experiences in our private room and their loved ones had a blast with singing, quizzes, bingo & learning some Cockney rhyming slang. #oldham #dementia #carers #royton #LivingWellWithDementia
