Right at Home Harrogate Getting Out in the Community (June to August)

We've had a great time getting about around Harrogate recently, engaging with the local community and letting people know who we are and how we can help your loved ones remain safe and well, as well as maintain their independence.

Take a look at some of the things we got up to below!

Right at Home Harrogate at the Knaresborough Bed Race (15 June 2024)

Right at Home Harrogate had an amazing time attending the Knaresborough Bed Race 2024! This spirited event, filled with excitement and community camaraderie, is always a highlight of the year, and we were thrilled to be part of it.

The Knaresborough Bed Race is known for its lively atmosphere, showcasing creative bed designs and enthusiastic participants. We enjoyed immersing ourselves in the festivities, cheering on the teams as they raced through the streets of Knaresborough. The energy from the crowd and the sense of community made the day truly unforgettable!

While we didn’t have a stand this year (watch out for 2025), we had many wonderful conversations with local residents and participants. Sharing our care services, our journey so far and connecting with community members reinforced our commitment to providing compassionate support to those in need.

Thank you to everyone who made this year’s Knaresborough Bed Race a fantastic experience! We’re excited to continue engaging with our community and participating in future events. Stay tuned for updates on our upcoming activities!

Right at Home Harrogate at the First Ever Starbeck Festival (6 July 2024)

We were thrilled to be a part of the inaugural Starbeck Festival this year, showcasing Right at Home Harrogate's care services alongside our valued partnership with Parkinson’s UK. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with the community and share the importance of home care.

Our Partnership with Parkinson’s UK

Partnering with Parkinson’s UK allowed us to highlight the unique challenges faced by individuals living with Parkinson’s disease. Together, we aimed to raise awareness and educate attendees on how our home care services can provide support and enhance the quality of life for those affected and promote all the great work the local Parkinson’s Harrogate group are doing.

The festival buzzed with excitement, filled with live music, delicious food, and engaging activities. Our team enjoyed meaningful conversations with festival-goers, answering questions about our services and discussing how we can assist those in need of care. The community's enthusiasm and support were heartwarming!

Being at the Starbeck Festival not only allowed us to promote our services but also facilitated valuable discussions about the importance of accessible care. Our collaboration with Parkinson’s UK emphasized the vital resources available for individuals and families navigating the challenges of this condition.

A big thank you to everyone who visited, the organisers and a massive thank you to our Parkinson’s representatives for sharing their stories.

We’re excited to continue our mission of providing compassionate home care and supporting our community. We can’t wait for next year!

Celebrating Community Spirit at the Ripley Show 2024 (11 August 2024)

In August 2024, Right at Home Harrogate proudly attended the Ripley Show, a fantastic celebration of agricultural displays and local community spirit. This annual event brought together residents and visitors alike for a day filled with fun and excitement.

We had a fantastic time exploring the diverse agricultural displays, which highlighted the hard work and dedication of local farmers and producers. From livestock to crafts, the show offered a great glimpse into the rich farming heritage of our community.

Fun, Games & Memorable Moments!

Steve, one of our team members, enjoyed hosting football fun and games with a slight competition twist! His enthusiasm and friendly rivalry drew in participants of all ages, creating a lively atmosphere that everyone loved.

While we enjoyed the activities, we also took the opportunity to connect with many local residents. Sharing information about our home care services and hearing stories from community members reinforced our commitment to providing compassionate support to those in need.

Thank you to everyone who made the Ripley Show such a memorable experience! We look forward to participating in more community events and continuing to engage with the wonderful people of Harrogate and the wider district.
