February promotion

This month we are promoting:

Dignity Action Day

As part of Health BOCS, the Brothers of Charity Services’ health and well-being programme, throughout February, we will be promoting Dignity in Care. To do this, we will signpost staff and the people we support to information about Dignity in Care.

This campaign aims to give everyone the opportunity to contribute to upholding people’s rights to dignity and provide a memorable day for everybody.It also aims to ensure people who use care services are treated as individuals and are given choice, control and a sense of purpose in their daily lives.
