We’re delighted to share that Potters Bar Clinic has been rated ‘Good’ by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) following its latest inspection.

This reflects the team’s continued commitment to delivering safe, compassionate and person-centred care, improving quality of life and promoting independence for both adults and young people.

We’re especially proud to see inspectors highlight the kindness of our teams: "Patients told us that staff treated them with kindness and respect… they were ‘lovely… good hearted people.’”

A fantastic achievement - well done to everyone involved!

Carers Week (8–14 June) is a time to recognise and support the incredible people who care for others every day.

Caring can be rewarding - but it can also come with challenges. This week is about raising awareness, celebrating the vital role unpaid carers play, and helping connect people with the support they need.

This year’s theme, Building Carer Friendly Communities, reminds us how important it is to create spaces where carers feel recognised, understood, and valued.

When support becomes part of everyday life, carers are better able to balance their responsibilities and wellbeing.

At Elysium Healthcare, our Working Families and Caregivers Employee Resource Group is proud to support colleagues who juggle work and caring responsibilities. We know that no one should have to do it alone.

Support can come from many places, including:
• Family and friends
• Citizens Advice
• Carers UK
• Charities and specialist organisations

This Carers Week, let’s take a moment to recognise the carers in our lives - and make sure they feel seen, supported, and appreciated.

Celebrating creativity this World Environment Day, we're proud to share that a talented service user we support has won Elysium’s ‘Tiny Forests’ logo design competition! 🌳

The competition invited service users to get creative and contribute to a project celebrating nature, community and sustainability – and the response was incredible. The winning design will now feature across all Tiny Forests materials, leaving a lasting mark on this exciting initiative.

Delivered in partnership with award‑winning artist Lucy Pittaway, ‘Tiny Forests’ is transforming spaces across Elysium services by creating greener environments that support mental health, wellbeing and sustainability. These spaces are enjoyed by the people we support, alongside their families, carers and staff.

Each Tiny Forest is co‑produced with service users, who help shape every stage, from design and tree selection to planting and ongoing care, creating meaningful opportunities for creativity, connection and involvement.

The winning logo beautifully captures the spirit of the project: growth, hope and community.

On World Environment Day, we’re proud to highlight how initiatives like Tiny Forests are helping to create greener, healthier spaces for everyone.

Congratulations to our winner and thank you to everyone who took part!

On World Nutrition Day, we're reflecting on something we're incredibly proud of - the inaugural Ramsay/Elysium Chef of the Year Competition 2026.

This competition was inspired by far more than great cooking. Every chef was challenged to create dishes that were nutritious, affordable, sustainable, and suitable for the people in our care. Taste and presentation mattered but more so did understanding the real impact that food has on health, wellbeing, and recovery.

"Behind every meal is a story of care, Chef of Year showcased our chef's nutrition into an act of service, making a real difference in lives of all service users."
- George De Battista, Group Hotel Services Manager

On World Nutrition Day, we would like to offer a huge thank you to our catering teams across Elysium. We can’t wait for the return of Chef of the Year in 2027!

Last Thursday, we were proud to exhibit at the Northampton ABI Forum held at The Mercure Hotel.

It was an inspiring and insightful event, with powerful contributions from individuals with lived experience of acquired brain injury (ABI), alongside highly informative sessions from professional speakers.

Hearing first-hand how multidisciplinary support has enabled people to progress in their recovery was particularly impactful and reinforces the importance of the work we do.

The forum was also a great opportunity to connect with commissioners, families, potential service users, and colleagues from across the neuro field.

Thank you to the organisers and everyone who contributed to making it such a worthwhile day.

A Little Bit of Magic at Bradfield House

Spending time with animals can do wonders for our wellbeing - helping us feel calmer, happier and more connected. Animals reduce stress, lift our mood and can even help ease feelings of loneliness. Caring for them also brings a sense of purpose and routine, which can be incredibly rewarding.

At Bradfield House, they love creating experiences like this for the people they support. For the past few years, they’ve been working with the team at Incredible Eggs, who provide eggs and hatching kits for them to look after on site.

This year, seven chick eggs were carefully cared for and successfully hatched. Once hatched, the chicks stay with the site for 10 days before returning to the Incredible Eggs farm to be re-homed.

When hatching time arrives, the excitement really builds - someone shouts “It’s time!” and everyone gathers around to watch the chicks make their way into the world. Service users, staff and visitors pull up chairs, watch closely, and enjoy gentle cuddles with the new arrivals once they’re hatched.

Last year, we cared for duck eggs — and watching the ducklings splash around in water for the first time brought so much laughter and happiness! Experiences like these create wonderful memories and brighten everyday life for everyone at Bradfield House.

Last week was National Day of Staff Networks and we wanted to take a moment to celebrate ours.

Elysium Healthcare has six Employee Resource Groups, made up of over 150 colleagues from right across the organisation:

• Race and Ethnicity
• Neurodiversity
• LGBTQ+
• Disability
• Women
• Working Families and Caregivers

These groups exist to make sure every member of our team feels like they belong, that their voice is heard, their experience matters, and that there's a community here for them.

Since they were established, our ERGs have helped shape 8 new policies, set up 4 support groups, and created over 40 resources for staff. That's a real and lasting impact on how we work.

Elysium’s Head of DE&I, Nicky Lintott says: “Our ERGs have played an important role as partners for leadership, providing valuable insights into employee needs and concerns, helping shape policies and practices that support inclusivity.”

To every ERG member and leader, thank you. You make Elysium a better place to work.

We’re delighted to share an inspiring recovery story from The Woodmill 💚

This co‑produced case study follows a service user who has made significant progress through tailored rehabilitation, strong teamwork, and a recovery plan built around her individual goals while supporting a hopeful and sustainable path towards discharge.

In her own words:
"I'm going to get out of hospital and once I'm out, I'm staying out."

Access to democracy is more than just a right - it’s about feeling heard, valued and connected.

At Gateway Recovery Centre, John Dyas, Councillor and Therapy Coordinator, and the team are helping service users rediscover their voice through voting. By creating safe, inclusive spaces and breaking down barriers, they’re turning something that can feel complex into something empowering.

From mock polling stations to open conversations, people are building confidence, understanding their rights, and seeing the difference their voice can make.

This work goes far beyond voting - it’s about confidence, independence and feeling part of something bigger!

We are pleased to share a new guide that supports fair NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) assessments for Huntington’s disease (HD).

Susan Field, Care Centre Director, The Dean Neurological Centre, Gloucester said:
"We are delighted that this guidance has been published to support us and others when working with people living with HD, which in many respects still remains widely misunderstood."

Developed with specialists experienced in both HD and CHC, the guide aims to ensure people receive the care and support they need, when they need it.

Heidi McCarthy, Care Centre Director, Stanley House and Bowley Court Neurological Centre, Hereford said:
"How wonderful we now have some guidance on the complex care and needs of people living with HD. After many years of supporting people with this complex neurological condition, to finally have something to support professionals in their understanding of the complexity of people living with the condition is so beneficial."
