Mother's Day was a very special day at Allingham House , the residents could speak with their families by phones and videocalls meanwhile received cards and presents from them. 

Residents enjoyed making placemats for the tables on St Patrick's Day, a lot of work went into these and there were enough to go round for everyone. They looked great and really brightened up the tables. They also decorated cakes for afternoon tea, which everyone including staff sat and enjoyed with a cup of tea.  

Here at Highfield Care Home we were really excited to celebrate Mother’s Day!  All the Mothers enjoyed many flowers and cards from their children and loved ones. The staff made sure we had lots of tea and cupcakes ready to give to all our residents to celebrate their own mothers. Everyone had a wonderful day.

As it was Mother’s Day we thought we would celebrate with a wine and cheese party. All the residents were very excited as we had been making beautiful art work to display on this special occasion. Everyone enjoyed the day with singing and dancing. The food was especially lovely, and everyone enjoyed it. 

Saint Patrick's Day, or the Feast of Saint Patrick (Irish: Lá Fhéile Pádraig) The day commemorates Saint Patrick and the arrival of Christianity in Ireland and celebrates the heritage and culture of the Irish in general.

Mothering Sunday at Manorhey was lovely, we enjoyed an afternoon tea with cakes, sandwiches and scones with cream and jam and tea served in china. All mums here and including Grandmas received beautiful cards, gifts and flowers which really did make their day special. 

Our team are ready to celebrate St Patrick's Day with our residents. 

As part of our monthly visits to different countries we decided to go to Mexico. We decorated our home ready for a Mexico themed fun-filled day which we ended with a fiesta. We dressed in sombreros and ponchos and enjoyed tacos and nachos with cheese, salsa and sour cream dips. Many residents had never tried Mexican food which to their surprise they loved. 

Celebrating Mother's Day with afternoon tea for our 4 special mums.

We have a lot of talented people living at Wyndham Hall and the regular craft sessions are always a favourite.
