Clarendon Court is a credit to the excellent management you both provide. All the staff have treated M with the dignity and respect he deserves. They have also been very helpful to me, it has been a very difficult time for me having to accept that I couldn't have him home because of his mobility issues. I can manage all other issues but with my spinal problem he wouldn't have been safe. It was lovely to be greeted by smiles and jokes.

Rachel, Helen, Karen, Hollie and Charley, many thanks for all your help given to me whilst I have been visiting M at Clarendon Court.

Hope Green were treated to a morning of toe tapping and hand clapping music from a local accordion entertainer and it was a roaring success. Residents and staff couldn't resist getting involved and were even up dancing which was wonderful to be a part of. Live music plays a wonderful role in stimulation and lifting mood but it was also great to see how it brought everyone together in dance, whether that was on our feet or in our armchairs! Thank you to our entertainer for a wonderful time, we're hoping you'll visit us again soon.

Blue and Muffin are beautiful pets who live at Deepdene. They bring so much pleasure to everyone who lives and works at Deepdene, especially when they choose to join in with the activities. 

Andy T is back! Andy has been entertaining all those who live and work at Brunel House for the last 6 years. We used to enjoy his company regularly as he was so popular and we are all so happy he is now back. The reaction when he arrived said it all. 

25th May was Africa Day and we celebrated in style. From traditional costumes and food, to dancing, games and African music. We had a great time. 

The residents and the staff joined together to celebrate 'Time For A Cuppa' last week, a fundraising event to raise money for Dementia UK and support families facing Dementia. Cupcakes decorated with edible butterflies were baked by Pam from Admin team while the kitchen staff provided us with cheesecake and fresh scones with clotted cream and jam. I would like to thank everyone for their collaboration and generosity making this day very special.

Wow what an amazing week we have had this week at Bowerfield House

Today we did arm chair travel and our residents went to the beach! We did a virtual tour of Cromer, Sheringham and Southwold, built sand castles, made our very own beach sandals, played beach volleyball, had chance to feel a range of interesting beach shells and paint our own sea side postcard. The residents all chose activities that they most wanted to do and including a fish and chip lunch, fun was had by everyone. 

For World Bee Day we enjoyed a range of different crafts here at Bowerfield Court. We painted little wooden bumble bees which we made into badges, made pom pom bees and painted bee feeders. We also decorated our own bee house with tiny bees which has been placed in the garden as a protective home for solitary bees. Our bee balls have been planted in baskets at the front of our home and we are now patiently waiting for the wildflowers to grow so they can be enjoyed by both the bees and our residents. 

Today at Manorhey we tried different chocolates as part of our tasting session. We had to see what flavours we could taste, if we recognise the chocolate bar and if we enjoyed the taste of that particular bar. Residents were surprised with all the new flavours that have been invented and they certainly enjoyed them.
