Take a tour of Myos House, dementia care scheme, as open days announced for 2026

We are pleased to announce two open days for Myos House, a pioneering dementia care scheme in Scunthorpe, taking place on Wednesday 21 January 2026 and Thursday 23 April 2026.

These events offer families, carers, professionals, and community members the opportunity to tour the building, meet the team, and learn about the living at Myos House.

Opened in 2021, it has 25 two-bedroom apartments and purpose-built communal spaces with carefully considered design and interior features.

Residents enjoy the freedom of independent living, with skilled staff on hand to provide tailored care packages if needed, ensuring safety, companionship, and peace of mind for residents and families.

With shared lounges, activity areas, and landscaped gardens, social interaction, helping to counter isolation and promote wellbeing is something the team are passionate about.

“We are not a care home.” explains Anita Catley, Dementia Scheme at Ongo. “Each resident has their own private apartment in a comfortable, safe and secure setting.

“However, the specialist facilities and care we have available, means that people can get the support they need to suit them and stay in their home with family for as long as possible.

“Myos is such a special place, and we want as many people to see that as possible at these open days.”

What to expect at the open days

  • Guided tours of apartments and communal areas
  • On-site colleagues and care team available for conversations
  • Insight into support services and care options
  • Light refreshments and informal networking opportunities
