Linley led the entertainment recently making it very interactive, with dancing, and exercises accompanied with bubbles and feathers, a fabulous afternoon.

As the days get shorter we begin to think about the beautiful season, Autumn.  With this in mind, the creative minds at Deepdene took to drawing stunning Autumn leaves coloured with autumnal pastel colours.

Happy Birthday Richard! 

For Richard’s recent birthday we decided to take a virtual trip to Mexico.  Sombreros at the ready, tasty food and Latin music, a great way to celebrate.

We recently celebrated International country and western day in style at a Hoedown at Kings Court. There were hot dogs and cheese bites and of course plenty of country music with inflatable guitars for those that wanted to join in.  It was a fun day all around.

Allingham House was nominated on three of the Care Award categories. All our nominees received a trophy as a recognition for the hard and devoted work that they deliver every day in our home. Also, John Harte, one of our nominees was awarded with the Maintenance Person Of The Year. Our kitchen staff prepared an amazing buffet that residents and staff enjoyed together.

It's always nice to go out for a drink at the seaside in Donaghadee and watch the horses playing in the water. Cheers from Abbey View!

Lovely surprise to all our Carers here at Abbey View, a wee party with a special cake, ice cream and gifts to show them how much they are appreciated.

As Winter is drawing closer we know that there won’t be as much colour in the garden.  To be prepared we used our  ‘Gardening Fun’ session to paint stones this week to put in the garden and add some colour for us all to enjoy.

As part of the “National Arts in Care Homes’ day, we took advantage of the beautiful early Autumn weather and took out art outside.  One person who lives at Woodland decided to take a walk around the garden for inspiration and then drew what she saw.
