In recognition of London Fashion week recently, some of the people who live at The Hawthorns created their own tie-dye t-shirts. We were all pretty impressed with the results, perhaps there’s room for a Hawthorns fashion line!

The people who live and work at The Hawthorns showed their support for World Alzheimer’s Day 2021 by decorating purple ribbons which are on display in our home.

There was also an afternoon of fun playing a memory game all together.

The MMCG Care Awards "Oscar" Day held at Ashmead on Friday 24th Sept 21 was a day to remember for all residents and staff.

Two of the staff team members, Mouna Bah, Deputy Manager and Tikadevi Thapa Magar, Care Practitioner, were both finalists and dressed beautifully for the occasion. Certificates and flower bouquets were awarded to our finalists whilst everyone present enjoyed wonderfully prepared food, music and the late September sunshine.

 

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.

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. 

Cedar Court were celebrating after winning 3 awards at the recent MMCG Care Awards 2021. The home was nominated in 7 categories, an achievement in itself and celebrated with an Oscar themed afternoon. Yousuf Kutty was presented with his award from his manager after being announced as Deputy Manager of the Year. Cristina Volosetchi also strutted down the red carpet to receive her award for Care Practitioner of the Year.

Cedar Court had an amazing afternoon at the recent care awards, winning 3 out of the 7 categories they were nominated for. Although missing out on Home of the year, the team surprised Petra the manager with her very own award, for “Best Manager” in recognition of the support, care and leadership she has shown to all of those who not only work at Cedar Court but to the people who live at Cedar Court and their families.
