As part of our ongoing Wellbeing Talk Series at Riverstone, we were delighted to host the insightful "Your Health, Your Wealth” educational talk yesterday at our Kensington Residence, led by our Wellbeing Director, Dr Zoe Wyrko, and the Wellbeing team, this talk aimed to open the conversation about the complexities of care and the importance of maintaining independence.
Dr Wyrko shared valuable insights into why maintaining good health is essential, as well as the various support options available and their associated costs. She emphasised the need to shift our perspective from viewing "care" as a necessity to recognising it as part of the support that enables individuals to stay independent and live fulfilling lives.
Interestingly, while people often think that personal care will be a necessity, it’s surprising that only around 10% of individuals require it, and most of it is short-term support.
This insightful talk was followed by an interactive Q&A session and lunch at Maria G’s, our brasserie-style neighbourhood Restaurant & bar.
We look forward to continuing the Wellbeing Talk Series across all our residences, with two more events coming up at Riverstone Fulham and Riverstone Bishops Avenue Marketing suite.
