Chinese New Year at Allingham House

As a multicultural environment, where people from all around the world, work together giving the best of themselves, to deliver the best of the care. We like to learn a bit more about the people that make that possible, joining to the celebrations of important festivals from other countries and cultures.

This time we joined a quarter of the world's population to celebrate Chinese New Year. We welcomed the year of the tiger with many different activities, where the residents enjoyed a Whole Chinese Immersion Experience.

The most popular ones were creating the beautiful Chinese Lanterns that were displayed around the home, residents and staff came along together to show their best artistic skills creating beautiful decoration. Also, the residents could enjoy a traditional Chinese meal thanks to the help of the kitchen, they elaborated a special menu to celebrate Chinese New Year.
