The staff at Hope Green were delighted with the amazing hamper made by one of our resident's family members as a token of appreciation for the care the team provided mum with. Thank you from everyone at the team at Hope Green.

Friday 20th August at Belmont House Care Home we hosted a very special event, Bradlee Whittaker, a health care assistant at Belmont House Braved the Shave for Macmillan cancer support. Special guests, the Mayor and the Mayoress of Harrogate took part in the afternoons entertainments. We don’t have a final figure yet but on the afternoon we had got to over £820, we will announce the final figure soon. A very big well done to Bradlee who provided the highlight of a lovely afternoon for our residents, families and staff.

We celebrated Lillians 100th Birthday on the 13th August, she had family visiting and a lovely party with friends at Troutbeck.



 

Our residents today enjoyed using different card making crafts to make personalised cards for friends and family.

We are sure that when the families receive the cards they will be over the moon.

One of our residents family member brought in some beautiful flowers for her. Our resident loved the colour of them and was very happy to have received such a lovely gift from family.

People born in the month of July are very optimistic. They have a tendency to be extremely positive in every situation. If you have a July-born baby, rest assured because he/she will be liked by all. July-borns focus on the bright side of life. They are humorous, especially when they are with friends and acquaintances.

We just received a lovely package from Betty’s Harrogate, from a family member who’s father passed away last month. It was a thank you to the whole of Ashfield Court  for the care he received for the 3 years that he was a resident with us.

Thank you so much for the lovely treat!

As soon as the essential work on the roof came to an end our team of gardeners were straight into the garden and they have returned it to the lovely calm space we all know and love.  We have thrown open the doors and welcomed all those who live and work at Riverview, plus guests back into the garden.  What a difference a bit of sunshine makes.

The husband of one of our residents has very kindly made some trifles and a beautiful fresh fruit salad for everyone. The residents and staff would like to say a huge thank you let them know that we really appreciated it and enjoyed the fruit salad at lunch time-  it was so refreshing to have in this heat and we're looking forward to trifle for tea tonight.
