More about the Cardiff and Vale of Glamorgan groups
Golau Caredig, Broad St, Barry
There is a difference between a ‘care home’ and an ‘Independent Living Scheme’ – the latter being simply a series of self contained flats with a communal area for eating and relaxing/getting to know the other residents. It may appear that being in a care home or independent living scheme is the solution to older people’s care, but there is a certain degree of loneliness and alienation, due to many surprising and different factors. The Balanced Lives programme has been hugely successful in Barry in bringing residents together, helping them to get mobile and increase social interaction.
