We had a very special first visit from Chip the Therapy Dog and his owner this week and it was a great success with residents who were delighted to spend some time with him.

The benefits of Pet Therapy are becoming widely known and we are delighted that Chip has now agreed to visit on a regular monthly basis. We're so excited that we'll be seeing much more of him!

Our Wednesday bingo session was a real hit with everyone, we had lots of the people living with us join in the friendly competition, which everyone really enjoyed.

We will all celebrate this day with you also.

Many of the people living with us at Pinewood showed off their great creativity for our recent East Bonnet competition.

The meaning of being a mother is virtually endless. A mother is a protector, disciplinarian, and friend. A mother is a selfless and often makes many sacrifices for the wants and needs of her children. She works hard to make sure her children are equipped with the knowledge and skills needed in our society. A mother is a magical person in one's life.

We hope that you all had a wonderful Easter weekend
