Our Westbourne residents watched the England and Germany football match on Tuesday evening. There was loads of excitement and flag waving by both ladies and gentlemen, topped of with a splendid buffet supper with a lovely refreshing glass of Sahndy and of course England score a goal.

This week we celebrated National Candy Month 2021 by opening our sweet shop for our residents. We got a few favourite sweets from our childhood days, which were really appreciated and bought back lots of memories. The sweets were enjoyed by all and we certainly can say our residents have a sweet tooth.

Everyone here at The Belvedere Care Home celebrated National Cupcake Day for which we raised funds for The Alzheimer's Society. We had some beautiful cakes donated by our care team which were enjoyed with a lovely cup of tea. We combined this with a mini bake off and I'm happy to say our overall winner was our Deputy Manager Lynn Butterworth with her delicious Bakewell Cake.

With the help of our lovely colleagues we managed to raise £42.50. Thanks for the amazing support and all your hard work.

Well done to one of our residents who won our fabulous Father's Day hamper. All money raised has been placed directly into the residents' fund with our plans being to spend it on a day trip out. Happy Father's Day to all Dads!

Residents and staff enjoyed photos in front of the backdrop. In this photo we had 3 bubble machines throwing out bubbles in between the residents. Chef Joey created this fabulous fruit display. 

Residents were over the moon to have some live entertainment back, even though it was a garden concert residents enjoyed themselves immensely by singing, dancing and clapping along. They enjoyed one of their favourite singers sing some of their classic songs, from Dean Martin to Frank Sinatra.

In May at Manorhey we celebrated the 76th anniversary of VE Day. We started our day off by decorating our home with flags and balloons which was followed by a VE Day special concert and then we finished our celebrations with a good old afternoon tea with a selection of sandwiches, cream cakes and sweet and savoury pastries.

There’s nothing like tea and cake to bring people together. Knights Court proudly hosted Cupcake Day on Wednesday 23rd June 2021 for Alzheimer’s Society raising vital funds totalling £150 in the process to support people affected by dementia.

The weather was absolutely beautiful and the turnout exceptional. We had a delicious selection of cupcakes, cake & scrumptious chocolate chip muffins and tea and coffee to wash down all those delectable treats! 

Our residents at The Westbourne have been making the most of the good weather enjoying trips out. Including drives in the beautiful countryside.

One Resident went to Costa and enjoyed a cappuccino and a slice of carrot cake.

Another lady enjoyed a trip to the shops to help choose decorations and supplies for our party, it was good to be out.

Here at The Westbourne we celebrated Royal Ascot, firstly we all picked a horse for the 2:30pm race. All our lovely ladies wore hats that were kindly loaned to us by Lorraine at Tempting Hat Hire in Smallwood. We watched the race and cheered the horses on in style with prosecco and cupcakes. A good time was had by all.
