Our notice activity notice board has been updated with Christmas cheer all around.

It is looking very festive and is getting our residents in the Christmas spirit.

The residents have been busy getting the Home ready for Christmas by helping decorate the Christmas Trees. They have also created a magnificent Christmas Display using lots of textures, some glitter (of course!) and a real scarf for the snowman knitted by one of the residents.

We have been so fortunate here at The Hawthorns to receive some beautiful Christmas Cards from the Notre Dame Prep School. They have been hand made for our residents with some brilliant drawings and lovely hand writing. The residents read these over and over again today and truly appreciated the school thinking of us. Thank you the children and teachers of Notre Dame Prep School.

We enjoyed a Christmas special concert earlier this month by one of our favourite singers Dean Sinclair, he sang classic songs and definitely bought in some Christmas cheer as residents sung and danced along.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas at The Hawthorns. The residents helped decorate the trees for inside the home. Picking and choosing which baubles they wanted and which colours they preferred. We will be putting up decorations all week so that at the end of the week it will look like a Winter Wonderland here.

As requested by the residents in this weeks Cooking Club we made a Chocolate Yule Log. We all had a go at whisking and sifting the icing sugar. We rolled the cake out to make the yule log and the residents helped to make the topping look like a log affect. Yummy pudding for these lovely people tonight!

We were overjoyed by the turnout to our Carol Concert. Our residents had the most wonderful time welcoming friends and families to join us for carols, home made mince pies and mulled wine.

Thank you to all the staff of Clarendon Court who gave so generously to the Reverse Advent Calendar for Nantwich Food Bank. We were able to donate so much food, gifts and toiletries to help those in need this festive period.
