Do you remember the time?

February 11th 2026 By Pic PR 1 minute read

Care homes are full of characters.
 
And this week’s Pic of the Week shares a trio of them.
 
We work with Macc Care, a high-end homecare group with homes across the Midlands.

And its Sutton Rose Care Home in Sutton Coldfield recognised that it had three fantastic characters in the form of Maureen, Ann and Doreen.
 
With the three care residents having displayed great banter in reminiscence sessions, the team at the home were keen to take this further.
 
And this subsequently evolved into the launch of a dedicated podcast called “Do you remember the time?” where the three are set to discuss topics like relationships, growing older and changing the world. 
 
Not having even heard of a podcast before it was a novel concept for the care residents, which meant its launch was also a novel concept for the media.

Highlighting the new podcast generated significant press interest, with BBC Midlands Today visiting the home to speak to the trio, which subsequently became a BBC News online article.

It also generated further local coverage via the likes of the Express & Star – a key publication for the home.
 
Then, on top of this, Mauren, Ann and Doreen went live on air with Good Morning Britain to speak to hosts Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid about their new podcast.
 
The interview was fantastic with the care residents all praising their lives at the home – resulting in PR gold for Sutton Rose and the wider Macc Care group.
 
And that’s our Pic of the Week!
