Celebrating the people working with us is so important.  To mark Carers Week at Cedar Court we had a surprise care appreciation week. Throughout the week we had breakfast for all our team members and also a BBQ with everyone one afternoon. It was very much appreciated and well deserved for all our colleagues for always going the extra mile for our residents and their relatives.

We had a lovely visit from ”Tiny Farm” and we were absolutely thrilled to be able to spend an afternoon cuddling our new furry friends. We cannot wait to invite them again for some more pet therapy.

Celebrating special moments with the people who live with us is so important. The lovely couple below celebrated their 56th wedding anniversary, they dined in the restaurant for lunch and had a little trip down memory lane and received some chocolates from the whole team. Many Congratulations from us all.

We were only too happy when asked, to organise a birthday party for someone living at the home to celebrate in the garden.  It was such a pleasure to be able to decorate a space and provide some refreshments for such a special day. 

Earlier this week our residents enjoyed going to the church for lunch where they celebrated with the community the Queen’s jubilee. Food was 5/5 and they can’t wait to go back!

The people living at Gateford Hill found the children from a local pre school to be so uplifting on their recent visit. It triggered so many lovely memories of when their children were little. The children engaged really well with the residents who were filled with excitement when they arrived.
The children brought biscuits and chocolates to share with our residents as well as a parachute game which all generations enjoyed. 
One resident brought one of her collectible dolls down from her room to show the children. We are really looking forward to their next visit. 

The people living with us really enjoy the ‘Sing & Smile’ event we hosted this afternoon.  We do this every week and we even have relatives who come in each week to join in the fun! I just love to see the happy, smiling faces.  

The people living with us at Gateford Hill Care Home had a fantastic time celebrating the Queens Jubilee with a street party.  There were plenty of fun and smiles and the Queen was there in attendance.

What a spectacular day we had Friday 3rd June for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. The rain held off, the sun was shining and the people living with us had an opportunity to celebrate with their loved ones.
The BBQ was just fantastic and went down a treat, it was finished off with some wonderful cake. 
We all enjoyed the day playing games, listening to live music, and there was a tombola, raffle and a wheelbarrow full of alcohol. 

To celebrate the Queen's Jubilee we hosted a "Royal Afternoon Tea".  More than 100 guests attending our afternoon and we are very thankful for all the lovely comments from our Residents, their relatives and all other guests that attended our event. We were also joined by our new Mayor Cllr Amanda Marlow who was very impressed with our Home.
