A Special Birthday at Caremark Wandsworth: Dorothy Turns 97

At Caremark Wandsworth, we believe that care is not just about support — it’s about connection, companionship, and bringing joy into people’s lives. Nothing warms our hearts more than seeing our clients happy, comfortable, and thriving in their own homes.

This month, we had the pleasure of celebrating a truly special milestone: Dorothy, one of our beloved clients, turned 97 years old!

Dorothy has been part of the Caremark family for over a year, and during that time, her journey with us has been filled with warmth, respect, and genuine friendship. Recently, she sent us a beautiful handwritten card — a heartfelt gesture that deeply touched our entire team.

Here’s what Dorothy wrote:

“A very big thank you to all the great carers who come and help me. You are all very kind, competent and I enjoy your company.
Thank you also for the delicious chocolate cake and pretty card you gave me for my 97th birthday! I am really touched by this kind and generous gift. As you know I love chocolate & that was a very good cake which didn’t last long!
Yours affectionately, Dorothy”

To celebrate her 97th birthday, we surprised Dorothy with her favourite chocolate cake — just a small token to honour such an incredible moment. We were absolutely thrilled to hear how much she loved it, and how meaningful the gesture was to her.

Stories like Dorothy’s remind us why we do what we do.

Every visit, every smile, every conversation matters. At Caremark, our mission is not only to provide high-quality care, but to build meaningful relationships — to bring comfort, dignity, and joy into the daily lives of those we serve.
