Making Pals has been working with care homes across Greater Bristol to understand how much contact they have with their local areas and find out how the project can help them become more involved in local community life.
They’ve found that it’s very difficult for care homes to get their local communities interested in the activities and events they run, and also for their residents to get out and about into the community. They’ve shared the findings from our various surveys and consultations on their `What we have learned` page.
