Our Westbourne residents watched the England and Germany football match on Tuesday evening. There was loads of excitement and flag waving by both ladies and gentlemen, topped of with a splendid buffet supper with a lovely refreshing glass of Sahndy and of course England score a goal.

This week we celebrated National Candy Month 2021 by opening our sweet shop for our residents. We got a few favourite sweets from our childhood days, which were really appreciated and bought back lots of memories. The sweets were enjoyed by all and we certainly can say our residents have a sweet tooth.

Everyone here at The Belvedere Care Home celebrated National Cupcake Day for which we raised funds for The Alzheimer's Society. We had some beautiful cakes donated by our care team which were enjoyed with a lovely cup of tea. We combined this with a mini bake off and I'm happy to say our overall winner was our Deputy Manager Lynn Butterworth with her delicious Bakewell Cake.

With the help of our lovely colleagues we managed to raise £42.50. Thanks for the amazing support and all your hard work.

Some of our residents and staff at Hope Green are keen football supporters but even those who prefer other sports enjoyed cheering the football teams on. A great way of spending time together and socialise surrounded by flags, bunting and refreshments.

Well done to one of our residents who won our fabulous Father's Day hamper. All money raised has been placed directly into the residents' fund with our plans being to spend it on a day trip out. Happy Father's Day to all Dads!

Residents and staff enjoyed photos in front of the backdrop. In this photo we had 3 bubble machines throwing out bubbles in between the residents. Chef Joey created this fabulous fruit display. 

What a fantastic Fathers Day we had at Bowerfield House. We started the day with drawing the raffle which we raised £95 for our residents, one of our hostess won the prize, we then had a Fathers Day quiz and our Admin Beth won a bottle of prosecco.

A local radio society celebrated 100 years and took the time to remember members who have contributed to their work in the past. One of our residents was bowled over when they received a parcel in the post which included badges, key rings, hats and celebratory literature. As you can see from the smiles in the photo it was very much appreciated and great to feel part of the local community.

Residents were over the moon to have some live entertainment back, even though it was a garden concert residents enjoyed themselves immensely by singing, dancing and clapping along. They enjoyed one of their favourite singers sing some of their classic songs, from Dean Martin to Frank Sinatra.

In May at Manorhey we celebrated the 76th anniversary of VE Day. We started our day off by decorating our home with flags and balloons which was followed by a VE Day special concert and then we finished our celebrations with a good old afternoon tea with a selection of sandwiches, cream cakes and sweet and savoury pastries.
