Everyone loves this beautiful weather we're having at the minute and we love spending time in the garden, the only problem is the weeds grow so quickly. Luckily Joyce enjoys gardening and is a huge help in keeping them at bay, of course relaxing with a well deserved cuppa afterwards is even better. Our strawberries are coming along well and it shouldn't be long before we can have our own home grown strawberries and cream for afternoon tea.

The first bit of sunshine and Faye is back out, this time she has been busy watering the flowerbeds. 

Ball games are a way to have fun whilst improving balance and coordination. Here is our Jenny having fun in the lovely sun. 

Ann had a lovely pamper this afternoon listening to Mozart whilst enjoying a relaxing hand massage. 

Our lovely resident Joan celebrated her 100th birthday with us at Dussindale Park. She was pleased to receive a card from the Queen to open in front of her family! Many happy returns from us all. 

The residents enjoyed soaking up the sun on Wednesday afternoon at Dussindale Park. We planted tomato plants and sprinkled sweet pea seeds in our garden. We can't wait for the wonderful display and delightful smell. 

Residents at Dussindale Park tuned in to their artistic flair with a craft session, painting ceramics. The final results are stunning and displayed with pride in the residents rooms. 

Staff and residents enjoyed a BBQ in the sun this week at Dussindale Park. Our chef prepared delicious burgers and hot dogs, all washed down with a tipple. 

We decided we would have a Chinese themed day. Our wonderful chef came up with a very tasty menu for our residents, which they all really enjoyed. We then made Chinese lanterns to decorate the dining room tables and the residents seemed to find this very enjoyable. Everyone had a lovely day. 

We have been donated a lovely sequin sensory board for our residents here at Clumber Court. We would like to say a big thank you to Lifetime Education for donating it, especially a lady called Natalie for thinking of us. The residents love the feel of it and the bright colours that appear when they move their hand across the board.
