What a perfect day to celebrate national milkshake day by making our own in the sunshine. 

Clarendon Court is a credit to the excellent management you both provide. All the staff have treated M with the dignity and respect he deserves. They have also been very helpful to me, it has been a very difficult time for me having to accept that I couldn't have him home because of his mobility issues. I can manage all other issues but with my spinal problem he wouldn't have been safe. It was lovely to be greeted by smiles and jokes.

Rachel, Helen, Karen, Hollie and Charley, many thanks for all your help given to me whilst I have been visiting M at Clarendon Court.

What an amazing event!!

As summer is quickly approaching, we are also adapting our seasonal menu. However, as always at Buckingham House we did it in style. One of the topics highlighted during our resident’s council meeting was that they would like more variety on their summer menu. We ensure that we are #responsive to the needs and likes of our residents!

Hope Green were treated to a morning of toe tapping and hand clapping music from a local accordion entertainer and it was a roaring success. Residents and staff couldn't resist getting involved and were even up dancing which was wonderful to be a part of. Live music plays a wonderful role in stimulation and lifting mood but it was also great to see how it brought everyone together in dance, whether that was on our feet or in our armchairs! Thank you to our entertainer for a wonderful time, we're hoping you'll visit us again soon.

Blue and Muffin are beautiful pets who live at Deepdene. They bring so much pleasure to everyone who lives and works at Deepdene, especially when they choose to join in with the activities. 

Andy T is back! Andy has been entertaining all those who live and work at Brunel House for the last 6 years. We used to enjoy his company regularly as he was so popular and we are all so happy he is now back. The reaction when he arrived said it all. 

Afternoon garden games for all, complete with ice creams, lemonade, music and laughter. Judith is getting ready for Wimbledon. 

As things are getting back to normal we have restarted the activities and visits that we always used to enjoy. The first trip out was lunch at our local pub. It was long overdue and a joy to be outside in the lovely weather. John and Janna cannot wait for the next outing. 

The residents and the staff joined together to celebrate 'Time For A Cuppa' last week, a fundraising event to raise money for Dementia UK and support families facing Dementia. Cupcakes decorated with edible butterflies were baked by Pam from Admin team while the kitchen staff provided us with cheesecake and fresh scones with clotted cream and jam. I would like to thank everyone for their collaboration and generosity making this day very special.

We were waiting for a special day here at Clarendon, an outside cabaret with one of our most popular artiste. The stage was set up and the chairs was arranged. Once the show began Robert didn't disappoint, treating us to a superb afternoon of entertainment our residents really enjoyed. We look forward to out next show.
