She will spend her support times going shopping with staff and loves a wander round and a bargain from the charity shop. B loves cooking with staff and enjoys trying new recipes then enjoying the meal with staff. B loves nothing more than watching Only Fools & Horses having a good laugh with staff reminiscing about the past. B takes pride in her flat and staff support her with daily household tasks.

Her family are important to her and she will talk you through all the photos she has on her walls when you visit her flat.
