Cawood House is a care home in Brinnington, Stockport, that specialises in providing dementia care. The Cawood Team loves a crazy idea, so our 42 residents (who range from 75 to 95 years young) with help of staff, family and friends will start our ‘journey’ to Calais, France on 21st May. We aim to complete the 607 mile trip (which is a whopping 1,321,775 steps!) around our amazing home by D-Day (6th June).
Staff at Cawood House have the privilege of caring for some WW2 veterans and we love hearing their amazing stories of their proud time serving their country. We, along with our other 11 Borough Care homes, recently signed up to the Veteran Friendly Framework.
Our local gym, Life Leisure Brinnington, are joining us on this amazing journey by donating their steps. We have some amazing veterans within our local community coming to join us, too.
Our amazing residents have decided they want to raise £1 per mile, so we’ve set a target of £607 - but we’d love to raise even more!
Thank you for any donation, it is greatly appreciated.

Another of our Cawood veterans Bernard helped Leigh with a media interview yesterday too. Bernard was and still is a very proud drummer boy and tells us daily his beautiful memories of his time being called up for national service.
