Ambient found #MomentsForMovement this Mental Health Awareness Week and went for a walk in the park (plus a stop by the petting zoo, naturally ☺️). Watch the video to join us and learn more about how physical activity benefits our mental health! #MHAW2024

🌞Until the sun comes back out, let's look back at when it was shining for our London Short Breaks service garden party! People we support at the service, along with their Ambient team, enjoyed endless smiles and laughter. #TheAmbientWay

🥞 Pancakes, anyone? It's Monday morning and we're reminiscing about Pancake Day last week... wishing that we were an Ambient Team member being treated to hand delivered crepes with berries and whipped cream! Jealous! 😎 #TheAmbientWay #LearningDisability

💖 It's been a week filled with love, cupcakes, and candy this Valentines. Here's some photos from one of our Short Breaks #LearningDisability services in London, boasting a beautiful array of baked #cupcakes . Don't suppose you have any left?... Long shot! 🥰

🎉 Ambient & @eleanorhomecare's first #BeyondDisco was a huge success! A night filled with boogy classics on the karaoke machine and the dance floor! 🕺 The event takes place on the second Thursday of every month. No RSVP required... see you there! 😊

🚶🚶‍♂️ Ayo and his support worker Steven have been enjoying their day time strolls, recently! It's brilliant exercise and has already built Ayo's stamina: when Steven asked him after an hour and a half walk if he was tired, Ayo smiled and said, 'No!' 😊 #wellbeing

📢 Last week, Luke and Claire from our Ambient Team represented our respite service, Brook Street, at a SEND leavers transition event in #Bexley . They displayed some of our best YT vids, including The Ambient Way! 👀👉 youtu.be/ZVPurRIF-Cw
