As we bid farewell to the year that has passed and step into a new one, we are excited to share our Winter Newsletter, which showcases the warmth and joy that our care homes have experienced throughout this special season. From heartwarming milestones to festive activities, this winter has been filled with moments of love and laughter.
This winter, we had the privilege of celebrating truly remarkable milestones with our residents. At The Lakes, Vera celebrated her 101st birthday with a festive celebration surrounded by family and friends. Mabel also celebrated her 101st birthday at Hillcrest House, an event that filled the room with joy and memories. We were also blessed to witness Annie and Jerry celebrate 50 years of marriage at Grenville Court.
Throughout the season, our homes remained committed to supporting the well-being of our residents. From fun games at Duncote Hall to gentle yoga at Hourigan House, our residents stayed active and engaged. Chestnut Lodge unveiled a modern sensory room, offering a tranquil retreat for our residents with dementia to relax and unwind. From live music at Amberley House to adorable animal visits brought joy and comfort. Residents at Gleavewood were treated to a visit from alpacas, while Grenville Court welcomed festive goats.
Residents engaged in a variety of creative activities, including Christmas card making, wreath crafting, and our Advent Calendar of Activities. Residents at Waterside even shared their holiday wishes with Santa, adding a personal touch to their Christmas celebrations. Our homes embraced the magic of winter with pantomime performances, hot chocolate socials, and Christmas jumper days. The excitement continued with Christmas card making, wreath crafting, and a host of festive parties and meals that brought families, residents and staff together to celebrate the season.
We hope this newsletter brings a little cheer to your day !
