Physical inactivity negatively affects both physical and mental health. Research has found that people who are inactive have three times the rate of moderate to severe depression of active people. There is also strong evidence to support the role of physical activity in the reduction of symptoms of depression and anxiety. Regular physical activity can reduce your risk of depression by up to 30%.
Enabling the people we support to stay active and connected to their community is a big focus for us, because we know the impact it has on quality of life.
Therefore, at Vincentian Care Plus, we're committed to empowering those we support to lead active lives and stay connected to their communities. We recognise the profound impact of physical activity on overall well-being and are dedicated to providing tailored care that extends beyond basic needs to encompass factors like staying active and maintaining social connections. Join us in our mission to promote positive ageing by prioritising physical activity and social engagement!

It’s National Gardening Week, and a good chance to talk about the importance we place on enabling the people we support to enjoy nature and feel connected to the outdoors and their community. It’s something our care teams take time to do, further enhanced by our befriending service, because we know and understand the benefits it can bring. Time spent in nature, whether it’s in our own gardens at home or out and about in our local area, can have a significant impact on physical and mental wellbeing.
Nourishing the lives of the people we support is at the heart of the exceptional care we provide, care that is tailored for every individual to enrich lives at every stage. |
