We have been delighted by the community spirit at Allingham House on Stockdean Close, Deansgate Lane, Altrincham and wanted to say a huge thank you for the lovely gifts we have received this past week.

Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts and we hope to see you all soon.

There are many ways we can say thank you to our staff but this was extra special. In our arts and crafts session our knitting group made these medals.  

All of our staff deserve a medal for the care and dedication that they show to us, not only in these times but everyday. 

We have had many messages of thanks from friends, family and the local community. Like everyone else we just want to help where we can.

Pictonary is one of our favourite games with both our residents and staff getting involved. It can get quite competitive and noisy but its always good natured and good fun.

Like many other people, over the last few weeks we have noticed that there is an abundance of wildlife and especially birds.

The bird song is so soothing and seems much louder than usual. Our enclosed garden is a lovely place to watch the different birds and we feel blessed we are able to share this space with them.

Our residents are managing to fill their time easily at Brunel House.

Art is a fantastic stress reliever, its relaxing and enables us to channel our creative side.

The recent glorious weather has meant we have been able to enjoy our art in our beautiful gardens whilst listening to bird sing and watching the local wildlife at the same time.

The residents at Ashfield Court on Tewit Well Road in Harrogate had a lovely surprise when the ice cream van popped by to see them.

The visit certainly made the lovely hot weather we are having feel like we were on holiday.  Thank you so much for visiting us.

We were delighted to receive lovely pots of plants from Rossett High School for the home and residents.

They were such a lovely surprise and we can't wait to have those growing in our courtyard.

Thank you to Rossett High School for your lovely gift.

VE Day may seem like a long time ago now but the residents at Garden Hill Care Home are still talking about it.  We are so lucky to have such a huge garden at the home so we had a singer come along to sing for us and we sat outside and in the conservatory to enjoy the celebrations.

We then had a gorgeous treat of high tea in the afternoon. The residents all have so many memories from that time which they were happy to share with all of the staff.
