Bright Copper Kettles CIC
Founder
I'm Caroline Benham, I'm passionate about the importance of Care Home Activities for older people and for people with dementia.
I truly believe that Care Home Activities Matter.
I help Activity Coordinators to deliver person-centred, meaningful, purposeful and fun activity programmes in care homes across the UK.
The quickest and easiest way to work with me is through the tabs in the header on this page.
- the best of these is the Silver Membership.

My passion for improving the opportunities for activity in later years and, in particular, for those with dementia has grown from my personal experiences caring for my grandmother. I learned so much from my 'Nanny' both before and after her dementia diagnosis. And it is with grateful thanks to her that Bright Copper Kettles CIC continues to flourish and inspire others.
I enjoy having fun and continue to volunteer with facilitating activities for people with dementia. I am a Dementia Friend, Dignity Champion and a Purple Angel Ambassador
In addition to my hands-on experience I am qualified to teach in the life-long learning sector and I also hold a BSc (Hons) in Dementia Studies.
I continue to learn with enthusiasm from a variety of sources.
This website is a non-profit social enterprise.
Funds are raised to pay for the costs incurred and to support older people, including those with dementia, to participate in activities within the community.
