We hope that many of you are participating in the third annual National Care Home Open Day today, 19 June 2015. 

It’s a chance to celebrate the sometimes undervalued work that goes on in UK care homes. We hope, whether you’re running an event today or on the weekend, you’ll be welcoming the public into participating homes and forging long lasting links with local communities. Don’t forget to spread the good news with your local media too.

This year’s theme is the Arts and Valuing Staff. The National Care Home Open Day website will have information and reports on organisations and care homes that have participated in National Care Home Open Day this year.
