Langtree's Cat Cafe supports local charity!
Langtree Care Home hosted a pop-up Cat Café in aid of a local charity last week, raising money on International Cat Day.
Hosted in aid of Avid’s Angels Cat Rescue, a Bolton-based charity which supports cats in the North West, residents and people from the local area indulged in sweet treats and refreshments while getting to know some of the organisation’s cats.
The event raised awareness and £100 for the charity, while several cats are being considered for adoption by attendees.
“It was wonderful hosting our first event at Langtree Care Home and even more special due to the good it created. Our residents really enjoyed it. One resident, Winnie, got so much from it with a smile plastered all over her face from start to finish!”
“Avid’s Angels Cat Rescue was thrilled to attend the recent Pop-up Cat Café hosted by Langtree Care Home, in aid of our rescue work. The event brought together care home residents, their families, and our friendly feline companions for a heartwarming afternoon of tea, cake, and cat cuddles.
“We believe strongly in the importance of enrichment activities for care home residents, and it was wonderful to witness the joy and connection the café brought - not just to the residents, but also to their visiting families. The smiles, laughter, and gentle moments of affection truly reflected the uplifting power of animal companionship.
“We would be delighted to visit Langtree Care Home again in the future and continue building on the bond between our cats and the community. Avid’s Angels Cat Rescue currently has many adorable cats looking for loving forever homes. Details can be found on our website!”
The recently completed Langtree Care Home specialises in advanced nursing and dementia care and is part of the Standish Care Village. The Village comprises three homes catering for different needs, which deliver unrivalled continuity in the North West.
For those with dementia, community integration can provide an improved sense of belonging, reduce feelings of isolation, increase cognitive stimulation, improve mobility, confidence and change social attitudes around dementia and the care sector.
