We recently celebrated the 100th Birthday of our wonderful resident Joyce with cards, presents, celebration buffet and birthday cake. One of the day’s highlights, was watching Joyce open her very special birthday card received from Her Majesty the Queen.

Happy 100th birthday Joyce from all at Wyndham Hall.

During the national lockdowns, we've had to find new ways to deliver activities, as self-isolation and social distancing restricted many regular options in order to protect ourselves and the people around us. One of the blessings that came from this was our Sing Along sessions with Ellie over Zoom, which have become very popular with everyone in the home and remain a staple in our activities schedule.

Residents at Wyndham Hall enjoyed an active and fun-filled fortnight during the recent Wimbledon tennis championships.

Indoor tennis matches and themed activities, along with traditional strawberries and cream afternoon teas, ensured that we all enjoyed our very own Wyndham Championships.

We all enjoyed an ice cold slush from our lovely slush machine, we made many different flavours but the blueberry was surely a winner, perfect to cool us down in this heatwave.

The residents joined to the celebrations of National Doughnut Week with a delicious Afternoon Doughnuts Testing.

Coffee and Tea were served with the different types of Doughnuts, while the residents enjoyed listening and singing their favourite songs.

They may not be the tallest of flowers but we're very proud of our sunflowers here at Bowerfield Court. We planted the seeds several months ago and have cared for them on a daily basis, watching them grow along the way. We believe they wouldn't look out of place in a Van Gogh painting.

The residents thoroughly enjoyed talking about the Royal family today. We started off with a quiz about Royal Weddings, which some residents knew all the answers to! Then we reminisced about the family and shared our opinions on the monarch. And we finished off by watching highlights of Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding. We were clapping, cheering, oohing and aahing like we were part of the crowd on the day.

Love Parks Week in our home. We went for a walk around in our garden and we have done some gardening jobs. We enjoyed the music all day outside and played National Park Quiz in tea time.

Today at Buckingham House, we commemorated Apollo 11's first landing on the moon 52 years ago!

Our residents had a great time meeting 'Neil Armstrong', a space quiz and watching the actual landing 52 years ago on television. It brought back a lot of memories for our residents and with that a lot to talk about.

Everyone needs a bit of retail therapy and it was David, Veronica, Val and Janna who hit the shops.  We travelled to Swindon designer outlet village to hunt out bargains and enjoy the history.  The outlet is on the suite of the former Great Western Outlet Works and the history and architecture are still very visible.
