Out and About

The people living with us enjoy getting ‘Out & about’ at some time every day (weather permitting) in the vast grounds of Gateford Hill. Everyone enjoyed the fresh air, scenery and nature.  Nicola, one of our lifestyle co-ordinators, writes the residents a poem for them to keep using the words they have expressed while enjoying being outside which is such a special and thoughtful thing to do.  
Nicola described everything she saw  -  the scenery and nature. She told Ethel there were blackberries starting to grow and Ethel became excited and told Nicola she went every year with her dad to pick them.  She also spoke of when she was a child, she had pegs brought for her so she could make peg dolls with scraps of material. She played endless hours with them.  Such special moments shared everyday with the people who choose to make Gateford Hill their home.
