A Very Special Few Days 💛🎉

We’ve had a very busy and enjoyable few days here at the home!

Today, we celebrated with a lovely baby shower for two members of staff, as well as another celebration for one of our nightshift team the evening before. There was lots of excitement, laughter and well wishes shared by everyone.

This evening during happy hour, we also celebrated Geoff’s Diamond Anniversary – such a wonderful milestone and a very special occasion to share together.

Yesterday, we enjoyed a meaningful trip out to St Cuthbert’s Hospice to see where George’s sponsored fundraising money will be helping and making a difference.

A few lovely days filled with celebration, community and happy memories 💛

George is proving that age is just a number! ❤️

Our wonderful resident George has recently celebrated his 100th birthday and is now taking on a sponsored walk to raise money for two causes very close to his heart — St Cuthbert’s Hospice and Greenways Court.

📅 Date: 3rd June
⏰ Time: 10:30am
📍 Route: From Travellers Rest to Greenways Court, Delves Lane

George is hoping to raise as much as possible and would love the support of the local community. Whether you sponsor, cheer him on, or simply share this post, every bit of support means the world. There's a form in our reception if you'd like to donate.💙

Let’s help George make this incredible milestone year even more special!

At our coffee mornings we like to try thing differently each week, we had a flower arranging session this week, Jill asked if we could arrange this as she liked to do this with her local church, we have them on our dining tables they look so beautiful.

Last week in our coffee morning, our theme was flower arranging, we decided on silk flower for the dining rooms, to brighten the place up for springtime, we now have a vase on each table, the lady that requested this was Jill and she demonstrated to us how to set about showing the flowers they looked lovely when on the tables

St George’s Day Celebrations🎶

We recently celebrated St George’s Day in style, with the amazing Anna joining us to entertain our residents.

She was absolutely brilliant – so much so that a few people have already asked if she can come back again! There was plenty of singing, dancing and lots of smiles as everyone enjoyed the afternoon.

By happy hour later on, things had definitely quietened down… with a few very tired faces and a couple of our regulars taking a well-earned rest after all the fun! 😂🍷

A fantastic day all round 💛

Armchair Exercises 💪🎀

We had a great armchair exercise session today, using ribbons and bean bags to encourage gentle arm movements and keep everyone active.

Carolyn has settled in really well and did a fantastic job leading us through the exercises – keeping things fun, engaging and full of energy.

A lovely session enjoyed by all! 💛

Knit & Natter Giving Back 🧶💛

Today we took a trip to Glenroyd House to drop off our knitted blankets, made with care by our wonderful knit and natter group.

Glenroyd House supports people facing hardship, and we were so pleased to donate eight blankets to help those who need them most. After our visit, we stayed to enjoy lunch in their newly opened café – a lovely treat for everyone.

All five of our ladies had a fantastic day out, and it meant so much to know we’re helping others in the community. Our knit and natter group continues to go from strength to strength!
