Last Sunday, Claremont Manor made a memorable impression at the highly anticipated Eat Festival in Dawlish. The event, which drew food enthusiasts from near and far, saw our complimentary sweet and savoury snacks become the talk of the day. Our Head Chef Connor made a delicious Apple and Pear Chutney, served with cheese and biscuits, alongside Honeycomb Crunchie Tiffin’s and Blondies and Brownies. Festivalgoers couldn’t get enough of our carefully curated treats, which were praised for their exquisite taste and quality.

Some of the ladies from Manorhey had the chance to pay Manchester city centre a visit this week. They had a trip to Costa coffee for a hot brew and had a lovely chat about their childhoods growing up in Manchester. They then headed off to St Peter’s square to the central library to look at the exhibitions where they saw some familiar Mancunian faces. The ladies finished the day off with a concert at the Bridgewater Hall and some delicious scones.
Thank you to Manorhey's Dementia ambassador (Grace) and lifestyle (Areeba) for such a great day out.
 

Chartwell Manor had a great game of Just Bowl outside in the sun this week. Everyone enjoyed ice cream and played very well, especially our winner Bill. We can't wait for our next outdoor game...

A few ladies from Parksprings Care Home enjoyed a great day out at Strathclyde park. They enjoyed a trip out in their minibus and visited the loch with the ducks. Some of the ladies remembered the park before the loch was built and spoke about all the good all times they had there.

Happy World Baking Day 🍰...the people who live at Water Royd got their bake on and made some delicious cookies and tray bakes on Friday morning with their Lifestyle team. Everyone who took part said how much they loved getting stuck in and enjoyed them afterwards with a lovely cuppa.

We're grateful to celebrate this meaningful occasion with Manorhey’s staff and residents, wishing everyone a blessed Eid filled with love, laughter, and cherished moments.
 

Windsor Court enjoyed another lovely morning visit to the Morgan Motor Café this week. There’s so much for the people living with us to look at, they all find it very interesting and a great day out. The coffee and cakes are also very delicious.

Yesterday was World Parkinson's Day, so in aid of this Chartwell Manor turned blue for the day.

Afterwards. everyone gathered in The Bistro for afternoon tea with some interesting facts shared on Parkinson's for us all to gain knowledge...
