A Day In The Garden

Music and games in the garden. It was a beautiful day, the sun shining bright and a very enjoyable game of card bingo! Kate, Terry and Mary laughed the whole afternoon. Harry in the meantime had a little visitor come to see him whilst he was reading his daily newspaper. This made us all smile. How being out in the garden has lifted all our spirits. 

Thank You To Morrisons

Over the last year, our local Morrisons supermarket has been extremely supportive of Parkview House. This was a chance for us to give a little love back in the form of an Easter basket for the staff. Andre Hebron - Morrisons Community Champion received the basket on behalf of his colleagues. Thank you for all your support.  

Getting neigh-bourly with Pickles the Pony

We’re so pleased to see the new team at Windsor Court is already getting involved with the community, even months ahead of the opening of this brand new home. 

Bowerfield House Fundraising

Bowerfield House enjoyed a lovely coffee morning supporting Dementia UK time for a Cuppa fundraiser. We enjoyed eating yummy cakes and raised £6.53. A great day supporting something close to our hearts, well done to everyone at Bowerfield House. 

Vintage Cookies

We had a great time making vintage cookies and choosing our toppings this morning, here at The Hawthorns. We also had a look at our Mary Berry cookbooks and some of her great creations. This afternoon we ate our cookies with everyone satisfied with their efforts. 

The Moors Garden

We have great plans for our garden this spring at The Moors! The residents had great fun creating this dream board of what we would like in our garden and then getting stuck in! We've been clearing and re-potting, planting and weeding. It's been lovely to get back outside and get our gardening gloves dirty!

St Patrick's Day at The Moors

The Moors was overrun by Leprechauns this St Patrick's Day! The residents had great fun dressing up and Leprechaun hunting in the garden - as well as having a laugh at our staff members all dressed up and doing special St Patrick's Day word searches and crosswords. 

Easter Sunday Activities

The residents and the staff at The Westbourne had a lot of fun on Easter Sunday. They enjoyed a visit from 4 lively chickens! Everyone sang along hymns, Amazing Grace being a favourite, they listened to a Bible reading and joined in saying the Lords prayer. The residents then enjoyed a lovely roast dinner made by our Chef for the celebration. In the afternoon, our activities lady, Tammy, dressed as a chicken to deliver an Easter Egg to all our wonderful residents. This concluded a day full of fun and celebration. 

Easter Events

Here at Hope Green we had an amazing day full of events to take part in, including a bonnet competition, an Easter Egg hunt, and buffet lunch. It was great to see staff members dressed up and enjoying lots of fun and laughter in the garden on such a sunny spring day. A great time of games, chatting and dancing! 

Decoupage Terracotta Pots

Marianne showed residents how to decoupage terracotta pots, using paper napkins. It was a delicate operation to separate the layers of napkins, then stick to the pots with PVA glue, finished off with a varnish.
