Continuing on with our Around the World theme we celebrated Europe this week.



We had activities including making Belgian chocolates, make your own Italian pizza, French wine and cheese afternoon, Spanish tile making and European flag canvas painting.



We had a fantastic week.

“Stockport Foodbank are very grateful to those in our community who decide to help us in so many differing ways from food collections to fundraising, from volunteering to donating of finance. We are most grateful for all the contributions we receive and can assure everyone involved that the difference being made to those who are facing ‘tough times’ is considerable.”

Our beautiful memory garden at Croft House is work in progress and is looking great. Residents will enjoy sitting, relaxing and looking at the different flowers and colours.



 

It was World Chocolate Day and we indulged in over twenty different varieties of chocolate tasting, served with a mixture of herbal teas. Residents loved the social afternoon and the theme linked songs and some requests along the way. A great afternoon for all.

Bowerfield House and Bowerfield Court are delighted to be involved  and support Stockport food bank part of the Trussell Trust . We take our community involvement seriously and to assist in providing a vital service is something we are passionate about. We are thankful and excited for the opportunity to be working with the team.

Lovely afternoon at Troutbeck when two fabulous ladies played some wonderful tunes. Enjoyed by our residents despite the impending rain- thank you for visiting and playing in the garden.

Residents at Heeley Bank have been involved in dough craft. We thought it would be a great activity for everyone to get involved with. The residents like making things, they have made the dough themselves, it is very simple to make using just flour, salt and water mixed together well to make a thick dough ready for shaping and moulding.

Fantastic time this afternoon modelling with saltdough at Heeley Bank. Wonderful bright colours and lots of enthusiasm from our resident artists. 

The residents of Heeley Bank Care Home were treated to an interesting insight into the ancient art of origami as part of their activity planner.

Residents enjoyed learning about the traditional Japanese art of paper folding with many of them creating simple yet lovely origami birds and hearts.

The green fingered residents at Heeley Bank recently got their hands dirty creating some pretty bouquets.

There were a variety of different flowers available for the residents to choose from, ranging from White Roses, Blue Periwinkles and Green Fern Leaves.
