We recently welcomed confirmed and prospective residents to Riverstone Kensington to hear from Diana Moran and Riverstone’s Well-being Director, Dr Zoe Wyrko.

Health and well-being are central to Riverstone’s ethos and will be seamlessly integrated into each Riverstone residence through the 5* onsite amenities and beautiful indoor and outdoor well-being spaces, such as the swimming pools, herb gardens and gyms.

Riverstone’s residents will also have access to flexible well-being options, such as nutritional and dietary advice, exercise, physio and care assessments. All of these elements have been carefully considered and reflective of the preventative approach Riverstone is advocating.

During the event Diana took guests through a captivating tale of her own life, from her time as the continuity announcer on what is now ITV to live exercise classes on BBC Breakfast.

While Diana advises that the best time to start being fit is as early as possible, it’s also never too late.

She was keen to convey to the audience the importance of keeping fit in later life in order to maintain suppleness, strength and stamina all of which help people to live well for longer. Her dietary advice for a healthy life was to minimise consumption of salt, sugar and saturated fats.

Dr Zoe Wyrko, a leading geriatrician and Riverstone’s Well-being Director is focused on delivering a holistic approach to well-being across Riverstone. She spoke about a biopsychosocial model – mind, body and soul. Riverstone’s model consists of three pillars to foster positive later living.
