We couldn’t believe the beautiful weather on the day of our fantastic coffee morning to support and raise funds for Macmillan.  We invited family and friends to join us in the gardens. For sale were the fabulous tie-dye T-shirts, pressed flower art work and decorated photo frames all created by the people living at the Hawthorns. Everyone enjoyed the tea and cakes and a brilliant performance from our favourite singer. We raised an amazing £276!!!  Thank you to everyone who supported us and Macmillan.

The Annual MMCG Care Awards was celebrated brilliantly on Friday 24th September. The people who live at The Hawthorns, dressed up in their finest and joined the team to recognise the achievements of all the nominees. There was a pop up photo booth, themed food and drinks and everyone loved a sashay down the red carpet.

Recently the people who live at The Hawthorn made their own pizzas for tea. As well as kneading their dough to create the perfect pizza base, they also choose their own toppings. They were delicious!!

For Black History Month the people living at The Hawthorns have been involved in a number of activities, including quizzes to identify some of the most influential people and learning more about them.  We also completed word searches and posters.

Another birthday celebration at Deepdene and another excuse for a party.

Happy birthday Bob, it was a great day

Linley led the entertainment recently making it very interactive, with dancing, and exercises accompanied with bubbles and feathers, a fabulous afternoon.

As the days get shorter we begin to think about the beautiful season, Autumn.  With this in mind, the creative minds at Deepdene took to drawing stunning Autumn leaves coloured with autumnal pastel colours.

Another wonderful trip out to Hodgehill Cafe where yummy cake and scrumptious tipples were enjoyed by all!.  Here at The Wharf we understand how important it is for those living with us to also be a part of their local community and to enjoy a lifestyle that they have planned and hoped for.  Our wellbeing provision at The Wharf is growing and improving all the time, but it's also great to get out and about whist staying safe and protected by members of our Wellbeing and Care Teams.

You can expect more from life here at The Wharf.  More focus on the social side of things, more attention to your interests, more passion for your wellbeing, more reasons to feel happy and fulfilled in your home.

For Richard’s recent birthday we decided to take a virtual trip to Mexico.  Sombreros at the ready, tasty food and Latin music, a great way to celebrate.
