The Platinum Jubilee party was in full swing at The Wharf.  The bubbles were flowing for our families and loved ones with a sumptuous buffet that just kept on giving!.  Everyone had a fabulous time, the feedback has been truly heartwarming and we just can't wait to be able to do it all again very soon!.

We've had a sensational time celebrating the Platinum Jubilee with those living with us, families, loved ones, our fabulous teams and entertainment.  It has been a beautiful time to welcome so many visitors and to see the wondrous expressions of joy all around!.

We have celebrated the Queens Jubilee with an amazing entertainer at the home who sang a variety of songs for the people living with us.  There were food, fun and laughter throughout the home as a buffet and refreshments were enjoyed in the dining room.

We have decorated the reception to our care home making it fit for a Queen.  The people living at the home, the visitors and the staff all really loved the Royal Welcome.

The people living with us at Gateford really enjoyed getting the flowers ready for the Jubilee celebrations.  They flowers were themed in the royal colours and look beautiful around the home.

We had a special workshop come in today for the first time. They asked us to paint all different types of flowers to make a collage in the outline of The Queen.  We think that it looks fantastic and we have placed it next to our balloon display.  Each of the people living with us were so proud they had a photo next to it. 

The people living at The Hawthorns wanted to have a trip out and decided that they would like to go bowling.  We have made four trips to the bowling alley each time with different residents to make that everyone who wanted to go could go.  Everyone had such a good time and have really enjoyed it.  We are now planning our next trip which will be to the seaside.

The people living at the home have their own gardening club which they very much enjoy.  They have been creating some beautiful arrangements for everyone at the home to enjoy.

We have a walking club at the home and we quite often venture out over the common for a little walk.  This week on our walk we had a lovely surprise as we were greeted with some animals and a choir that we sat and listened to. Such a lovely extra treat for the group.

The Queen has asked people from all organisations to plant a tree in her honour for the Jubilee and the people at Buckingham House Care Home were really excited to get involved.
The Mayor came to the home to do the official planting and spoke with the people living with us.  To celebrate the event we had such a beautiful day that we could get our BBQ out.  There were also themed cakes and desserts for all to enjoy.  The entertainment was fantastic and got everyone out dancing.  We had such a wonderful day.
