Our stories

Residents at White Rose Lodge have been participating in a daily festive advent quiz this year for the chance of winning chocolates.  

Having a safe place to connect with friends and family is so important for those living in our homes, and this visiting pod does exactly that!

This year the local community of Bridlington are coming together creatively for their first Christmas Tree Trail in the theme of ‘Reduce-Reuse-Recycle’. The idea is for people in the local community to use their creativity to produce a Christmas tree using recycled materials.

Staff and residents have been getting festive with their Christmas crafts. Along with a Christmas wreath for the front door, they have made a Christmas brush family and painted festive pebbles for their pebble snake which is on display at the front of their home.

Staff and residents had such a fun time dressing up as elves for Elf Day -  helping to raise money for the Alzheimer's Society. There were definitely a few naughty elves about! 

Residents and staff at Abbey View have decorated the home for Christmas. The areas look stunning and it has brought lots of Christmas cheer to everyone!

Today at Thorntree Mews, we made some bells for the Christmas jingle. Our residents are looking forward to being part of the big Christmas Eve Jingle, as we explained that people all over the world are taking part. So, everywhere at 6pm people will take part in a 2 minute ringing of the bells.

The residents at Allingham House have got involved in the project ‘Hearts for Schools’ last week. In this project residents from care homes write messages to children from nurseries and schools close to them.

Residents were treated to an early Christmas party with fun, games and amazing food, with staff also receiving gifts. 

We here at Clumber Court would like to say a big thank you to all the children at Sutton Cum Lound School who have made these beautiful Christmas trees for our residents!

It is very much appreciated by both staff and residents. 

Here at Knights Court we gave one of our unsuspecting residents a surprise birthday treat. During the lockdown. One of our residents who was turning 90 years old thought his birthday would be just another ordinary day.

Croft House celebrated Elf Day on Friday 4th December, raising money for Alzheimer’s Society. Everyone had such a good day enjoying lots treats, guess the elf and advent games.

Residents and staff filled the home with laughter all day.
