BRITANNIA CARE
There’s always a great deal of activity at Britannia Care, but this month there has been more activity than usual, with staff and residents participating and celebrating a number of different events.
The visit of King Charles III to Bradford lifted the spirits of all concerned, while bonfire night, always a highlight at Britannia Care, was duly marked in the long-established traditional way.
Chief amongst November’s events has been Movember, which seeks to highlight issues surrounding men’s health. The idea behind Movember is a simply one, grow a moustache to highlight the issues around prostate cancer and what men can do regarding seeking check-ups and advice.
While staff and residents at Britannia Care get behind Movember, they will be hard pushed to compete on the moustache front with Britannia Care company director, Dr Manoj Joshi, whose impressive walrus moustache is possibly one of the finest examples of the style in all of Yorkshire.
Dr Joshi was quick to acknowledge that his moustache makes him instantly recognisable.
“People do know me for my moustache,” laughed Dr Joshi, who as well as being involved with Britannia Care, was earlier this year appointed as chairman of Bradford’s Economic Partnership, a role which will see him championing the economic potential of Bradford. Dr Joshi has been a leading light in Bradford’s business, faith and charitable sectors for several decades.
“For us at Britannia Care, Movember and the other events, such as bonfire night and the visit of King Charles III to our city, represents what we are all about at Britannia Care. It is about celebrating life and recognising the diversity we have at Britannia Care and in Bradford.
“Movember is important in helping raise awareness, not only in regards to prostate cancer, but in supporting men’s health issues across the board, both their physical and mental health,” said Dr Joshi.
“At Britannia Care every day is a celebration of what makes us different and what we have in common.”
The Britannia Care’s multilingual staff have a long history of providing care to the area’s multicultural community, with over 30 years of experience, knowledge and understanding in providing expert care to a diverse clientele.
As well as priding themselves on the facilities, activities and the level of care provided by Britannia Care’s highly trained staff, the group also pride themselves on being very approachable, ensuring that there will be a member of staff who you can talk to, who is only too happy to guide you through all you need to know about placing a loved one in Britannia’s care.
