A Dragon in Putney

Celebrating Chinese New Year at Ashmead

This week, Ashmead had a fantastic time celebrating Chinese New Year! It was a day full of excitement and joy for everyone. We kicked off the celebrations with a special dragon parade. The staff, along with a colorful dragon costume, marched around the home to visit all the people who live with us. It was amazing to see their smiles and excitement as the dragon moved through the halls!

The fun didn’t stop there. After the parade, everyone gathered together for a delicious Chinese meal, prepared by our wonderful catering team. The meal was full of tasty treats, including stir-fried vegetables, sweet and sour chicken, and fragrant rice. It was the perfect way to enjoy the celebration, and many residents said it was one of the best meals they’d had!

Chinese New Year is all about celebrating new beginnings, and it was a wonderful way to bring the community together. The day was full of laughter, good food, and happy memories, and everyone had a great time.

At Ashmead, we love celebrating special events like Chinese New Year, where we can all come together and enjoy the fun. We can’t wait for next year’s celebration!
