This afternoon’s activity was pizza tasting. We had a variety of flavours such as chorizo and anchovies, they were very tasty.

At a recent painting session, themed on the changing colours of Autumn , everyone had fun painting trees and some of our group even mixed it up a bit by adding buttons, with spectacular results.

We recently all celebrated the birthday of the lovely Connie, who was so amazed by her cake and was super grateful it brought her to tears. Sometimes it’s the small things that makes peoples day and we all had a fantastic day celebrating.

We celebrated Lillians 100th Birthday on the 13th August, she had family visiting and a lovely party with friends at Troutbeck.

Friday 13th and we had a 'Who want's to be a Millionaire' quiz, the questions seemed harder, we are not getting any where near one million!

Always popular 'Play your cards right' some good clear rounds by our residents.

On National Elephant day we held our art class with the intention of an elephant being our subject, some good efforts but one resident excelled, the finished picture was one to be proud of. A great day in our art class.

Here at Abingdon Court we believe it is important to keep engaged with the local community. We have had great pleasure working with a local dementia café run by Dementia Friendly Abingdon, who do great work with those living with dementia in the local area. To raise money, we held  a 'Denim For Dementia Day’, asking staff to donate £1 to wear their favourite denim and everyone living at Abingdon was encouraged to wear denim also! We managed to raise £50 for the charity and are delighted to be able to help out such a fantastic local cause.
