We received a very kind donation from Poundland in Catterick for staff and residents when we were shopping in May. We can't thank you enough for thinking of us and for all your support during the pandemic. We will be sure to enjoy all our treats with a cuppa in the home. 

We had a lovely morning planting some seeds for our raised bed project here at Rosedale. We bought some flowers and vegetable seeds and potted them into little pots to be transferred into the flower beds once they start to grown. We can't wait to show you them when you visit. 

Summer is fast approaching and we love having our fantastic gardens here at Garden Hill Care Home. We had a few lovely days in May so took the opportunity to get out in the sun and enjoy tea and cake. 

We were delighted when Musical Memories joined us for a 50's show in the garden in April. It was a lovely day and some of our residents enjoyed a dance in the court yard as Michaela sang to us. We had such a wonderful afternoon and can't wait to do it again. 

The residents at The Westbourne celebrated VE Day listening and singing along told old time war songs such as we'll meet again and white cliffs of Dover. Everyone had flags to wave. Some residents had flags or stripes painted on their faces to mark the occasion. Our chef baked us a cake and we decorated it with raspberries and blueberries. Everyone enjoyed a buffet tea to celebrate. A good day had by all. 

A big Happy International Nurses Day from us all at Croft House. To celebrate our nurses at Croft house the Home Manager, Martin, made the most delicious cake and in the colours of the Romanian Flag as all three of our nurses are from Romania. 

We celebrated 80 years of service today with our 5 domestic staff here at Willowbank who collectively have worked nearly 80 years between them. We enjoyed afternoon tea in the garden hosted by our home manager Angela Galloway and deputy Hillary. Well done to you all and thank you for your continued support. 

Happy International Nurses Day to all our wonderful nurses at Willowbank, but also the district nurse team who support us. We are celebrating with carrot cake and refreshments. 

Our younger person unit at Minster Grange is our Aspen Unit and as the weather hasn't been terrific so far we thought we'd give our lounge a facelift and we wanted to show you all. We hope you like it as much as we do.

Wednesday 12th May 2021 was International Nurses Day and we wanted to say a massive thank you to our nurses at Minster Grange and all of the district nurses and community mental health nurses. You are all amazing and today we celebrate you and all you do. We organised for a cake station in reception so our nurses and the district and community nurses popping into the home could celebrate with us.
