There is nothing like relaxing in the sunshine whilst sipping champagne.

We celebrated National Donut Day by decorating our very own donuts with coloured icing pens and edible decorations which we later enjoyed with a freshly brewed cuppa.

Part of our Nutrition and Hydration - Appletree Court celebrated Cocktails and fruits party! Our residents loved this activity watching the staff Hola hoop and limbo dancing, all different cocktails and fruit were enjoyed, it felt like we were on holiday. Hula skirts and garlands were made by residents, and we had a good old sing-along, it's good to have a happy hour any time!

We had a party yesterday at Acorn House to boost everyone's morale and to celebrate an end in sight to lockdown restrictions, we're all looking forward to getting back to some normality. We welcomed back our favourite singer Luke and had a great time with lots of singing and dancing and sampling some delicious fruity mocktails.

Here at Buckingham House we prepared to celebrate “It coming home”! Unfortunately no matter how much we cheered on our team we did not win!

However this did not dappen our spirits all our residents and staff enjoyed the evening watching the football with many decorations, treats and a wonderful atmosphere. We continued to celebrate the game as all our players did a wonderful job and really tried their best.

Fingers crossed for next time!

We are all incredibly proud of our England players for the performance they put on, both in the final and throughout the Euro 2020 tournament, despite being beaten in the final. Hopefully football will come home next year in the World Cup.

National Pina Colada Day was a huge success at Hope Green with a celebration in the garden on a lovely summer day. After dressing the garden in colourful bunting and palm trees, our own cocktail bar was serving pineapple juice with coconut or refreshing lemonade. Flower garlands and hats for everyone added to the summer vibe and it was a great way to spend time together, enjoy friendships and make new ones too.

We've been enjoying decorating our own doughnuts here at Bowerfield Court. We chose from a variety of colours and toppings and enjoyed creating some masterpieces. We all agreed however that the very best part of the activity was eating them!

Our photography club members enjoyed a short ramble through the garden today spotting interesting objects to photograph. Jenny thought the raindrops on the leaf was particularly pretty and Christine chose to photograph the birdhouse.

The very wonderful Mrs Marjorie Sheehy celebrated her 100th birthday recently and everyone at Eltandia joined together in celebrating this momentous day.

Marjorie, who spent many years working in the local theatre at Wimbledon, showed off her great elegance and sense of style for the occasion, dressed in a beautiful pink outfit and contrasting fascinator.
