Staff at River View Care Home took a moment to quietly remember and pay tribute to all of those who have served in the armed services.

At Knights Court we had our own ‘Spooktacular’ Halloween party with the people living with us along with staff dressing up for the occasion.

We had deliciously spooky treats along with our afternoon tea and then enjoyed an afternoon of entertainment from a Shamanic Drummer with her spiritual drumming and singing of folk songs.

We had such a fantastic trip to Flowerland in Bourne End last week. Our residents who came on the with us each chose a beautiful pot plant to give to their loved ones. They were amazed at the variety of colours and varieties of plants on display.

A trip to Flowerland would not be complete without a pitstop at their wonderful cafe for homemade cakes and pots of tea.

 

Buckingham House was filled with Halloween antics recently

Those living with us were kept extremely busy preparing and decorating the pumpkins for our Halloween celebrations and then enjoyed the delicious seasonal pumpkin soup prepared by our catering team.
 

A GOULISH time was had by all

Our lovely residents who live with us at Buckingham House were treated to an exciting trip to Fulmer Riding Therapy School. They were introduced to Freddie one of the horses at the school and were taught how to care for him.

After the excitement of meeting the horses, they were treated to a lovely afternoon tea during which the team at Fulmer chatted to everyone about the work they do with the horses at the school.

Giving it a little 'Oomph'.  Another Oomph wellness class in action! We just love getting our 'Oomph' on each and every week to support the enhancement of mental, physical and emotional wellbeing through innovative exercise and activity solutions.  We strive to enable those living with us to live life to the full. We have one life, so let's give it some Oomph!.

Not a holiday that those who live here are used to celebrating, but our Halloween celebrations turned out to be such a fun filled day.

Parkview House was on fire for Halloween, with a singing sensation entertainer giving off Phantom of the Opera vibes, fantastic decorations and our staff arrived in some great fancy dress costumes for our residents party

We are very pleased to announce that our Lifestyle Co-ordinators, Stanley and Kirsty are now qualified to develop and lead exercise classes, after completing the 'Exercise Leadership' course with Oomph! Wellness.

Things got OOOKY SPOOKY here at Abingdon Court, as we all gathered for some Halloween celebrations!

We hosted a 'best dressed' competition for the staff, with the winner being chosen by those who live here - there were some strong contenders this year! This happened alongside some Halloween games, a spooky punch to drink and plenty of trick or treats to go around!

In the spirit of Halloween, we collected a large array of pumpkins so we could decorate the lounge ready for our Halloween.

We had a selection of stickers with various personalities to bring our pumpkins to life!

This was light-hearted, fun, and enjoyed by all
