Earlier this month, we were delighted to attend Older Persons Day, hosted by Your Home Care, in Ripley, Derbyshire.
The event was created to bring together local organisations, charities, support services and businesses in one welcoming place, giving older people, families, carers, unpaid carers and local residents the opportunity to speak face-to-face with people who can help.
Private Client representatives, Khloe and Shane, were on hand to answer any questions…

The room was full of conversations, information, support, laughter, cake, and people connecting face-to-face with the organisations who were there to help.
Some feedback from the day:
🗨️ “Finding out things we didn’t know because everything changes over time. I can’t keep up with it sometimes.”
🗨️ “Amazing to see all the information in one place.”
🗨️ “This is what Amber Valley needs, something to bring everyone together and understand what us older people want and need.”
Preparations are already in place for Older Persons Day 2027 so make sure to look out for updates nearer the time!
