We have so many care home residents who can’t wait to start swapping with their new friend! While care homes will do their best to help their residents participate every month, things can crop up that make this tricky. For example, your friend might have a hospital stay that means they can’t complete their activity one month. We’ll give you as much notice as possible and you’ll still receive your monthly pack – we’ll pop an extra goody in there too to make up for it.  Sadly, it is likely that some of our Crafting Connections members will pass away during the project. We’ll give you a phone call to let you know and follow this up with a supportive email giving ideas for further reading that can help you in your conversations with your child. If you consent, we will also send a card in the post to your child celebrating their friendship. You will be given the option to continue on the scheme and be matched with a new friend.
