At the Leaders in Care Conference 2026, Cinnamon brand ambassador Louis Alexander, 26, takes a captivated audience on a journey which began at the age of 19 and was inspired by his Grandadโ€™s battle with dementia.
With an aim to raise over ยฃ1 million for dementia by the age of 30, Guinness World Record holder, Louis shared stories of his adventures from the Arctic to the Antarctic, and jungles, deserts and seas all in the name of dementia research.
His next challenge, and most perilous to date - a world-first attempt to kayak seven of the deadliest ocean crossings on the planet, each notorious for violent currents and extreme weather.
The Challenge:
English Channel (UK to France), North Channel (Ireland to Scotland), Strait of Gibraltar (Spain to Morocco), Cook Strait (New Zealand), Singapore Strait (Singapore to Indonesia), Molokai Channel (Hawaii), Beagle Channel (Chile to Argentina)

And for the fourth and final instalment of the ๐‚๐จ๐ฆ๐ž ๐ƒ๐ข๐ง๐ž ๐–๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐Œ๐ž series, we headed off to Sutton Park Grange Care Home in Sutton Coldfield for another delicious three-course lunch.
And it certainly caught the eyes of our resident judges, from Eastcote Park, Parkfield Grange, Sutton Park Grange and The Gables. After scoring a solid 23 points, it wasnโ€™t enough, however, to beat the lead meaning The Gables in Hagley remained in first place with an impressive 26 out of 30 points.
Residents Brian and Gigi proudly accepted the commemorative Come Dine With Me plate on behalf of The Gables and Head Chef Dwight.
In our eyes all the homes were winners! And what won our hearts most was the newfound friendships that blossomed over the dining experience. Such a joy!!! Well done to everyone for bringing the series to life.

It was time for Parkfield Grange Care Home, Head Chef Dan and the hospitality team to impress the panel of judges in part 3 of the Come Dine With Me ๐Ÿท series.
And what a performance it was that greeted the guests, with a wonderful saxophone solo by saxophonist, SantaSax and canapes to whet the appetite, before they headed to the private dining for a special three-course lunch.
The scores were in, following the meal, with Parkfield Grange picking up 22 out of 30 points.
That means The Gables Care Home remains in the lead as the competition heats up (and so does the weatherโ˜€๏ธ), putting them in the grand finale with Sutton Park Grange Care Home.
One more meal, one more score on the door! Who will be crowned this yearโ€™s Come Dine With Me Champions? โ€ฆ..
