We have been collecting donations for the Salvation Army in Keighley.

A big thank you to Yorkshire Cleaning and Maintenance for your kind donation of Toys and Games and also to Airdale Hospital for your donation of food and toiletries, and from our families we really appreciate it.

Abbey View's lights are switched on. Let the magic begin...

Welcome to Abbey View's own Winter Wonderland! Don't worry, it's very warm and cosy.

We have had a lovely day decorating our first tree for our home, we enjoyed some Christmas music with a nice cup of Tea whilst we put our decorations on. We have spent lots of time speaking about our favourite Christmas traditions and what they wanted to put on the trees and around their home. We made our own tree decorations together which look beautiful and we have also been creating snowflakes to hang from our ceilings.

We spent the day making Christmas cards, much fun and laughter enthused as pompoms got stuck to fingers and glitter got everywhere. We had lots of fun though!

Bingo afternoon yesterday with chocolate prizes!

To feel more festive in our dining area, Amber Court decided to decorate and make our own centre table piece. Look at how beautiful they are. Everyone enjoyed themselves whilst making them.

Normally Christmas Baubles are used to decorate our Christmas tree, but here in Amber Court we used our old yoga balls and pots to make one and decorated the front of our building. Look how lovely and colourful they are! Everyone passing by and all our visitors felt the spirit of Christmas in them.

We celebrated Christmas Jumper Day here in Amber Court. Our kitchen prepared homemade mince pies, hot chocolate and mould wine for everyone. All the staff and residents wore their colourful, fluffiest, ugliest, funniest, and itchiest sweater. We all had a fun day indeed.

Margaret, Roy and the rest of the residents loved the cold and foggy morning. Some of them decided to go outside while drinking their hot chocolate to warm them and a bit of chat with each other. Everyone enjoyed it and want to do it again once in a while.
