Anything is possible here at Cumberland. We organise group and one-to-one activities for the people we care for. We are also determined to make their wishes come true. When one resident said they wanted to do more activities with children, we got together with one of the local schools.

Our enhanced Safety and cleanliness procedures and clear visiting protocols help keep everyone safe and feeling connected.
