Manorhey joined in on the care awards last month. We arranged an Oscar themed party. Along with the residents the staff enjoyed prosecco with strawberries, a spread of hot and cold buffet and an Oscar themed cake which was made by our activities Co-Ordinator. We were nominated for best home and best manager, unfortunately we didn't win either however fingers crossed for next year.

We celebrated the care awards in good style with flowing refreshments, alcohol and non-alcoholic followed with a buffet tea. We also combined Macmillan afternoon with a great bake off, a few of the residents judged the cakes and found myself, Tina, the over all winner, with Joanne the runner up. Even though we didn't win any awards, we are all winners working hard to make lives here better for all our residents and working as a team. Well done to everyone who did win a award.

Dorothy and Gwen were a few of our residents who joined in playing exercise games such as chair netball and ping pong and how many beanbags into the baskets, they all had great fun, and not realising they were working out by using there arms.

Our activities coordinator Katie and residents Maureen and Annette, all enjoyed a catch up with me and Ron from Bowerfield House. We met up at Brookside Garden Centre and had some lunch which we all enjoyed and we had a good chat and the food was delicious, followed by a good look around the garden centre at all the lovely things. We loved to see the Christmas stock out on the shelves, me and Ron look forward to meeting up with our lovely friends from Belvedere again very soon.

Cheers! for all the winners of 2021's Care Awards. Amber Court's Staff and Residents enjoyed watching the awarding ceremony streaming live from the main office. Our Chef also prepared a lovely and yummy food selection for everybody. It was truly a great experience for everyone!

We celebrated Care awards at Troutbeck Care home with Homemade and hand decorated chocolate goodies for staff and residents to enjoy. 

Norma had a plum tree in her own garden so this brought back fond memories for her. We collected plums from our Plum tree, then the following day we made a plum and apple crumble.

Last week our residents enjoyed a country and western themed afternoon complete with music, props and instruments.

Last week our residents got involved in cake decorating, they all really enjoyed decorating their own buns. 

Last week we had a great afternoon, we had a golf tournament with the residents. Dorothy and Mona did really well, we had our maintenance, John, help and give us some tips and lesson.
