Meet Our Client
We are building a dedicated care team to support a friendly and engaging gentleman as he prepares to transition from a rehabilitation setting back to his own home in Walkden.
He has a great love of music, particularly blues, jazz, and rock, and is a keen Manchester City supporter. He enjoys watching the news, has a strong interest in politics and current affairs, and values meaningful conversation.
He is very much looking forward to resuming an active life within his community with the support of his dedicated care team, including visiting some of his favourite local places.
