It was a beautiful Spring day to be able to enjoy the sunshine at Hope Green and it was great to chat together about things that are important to us. Some residents contributed to our spring craft of butterflies  and flowers with inspirational thoughts too. How wonderful to spot butterflies in our garden whilst out walking and talking. We're really looking forward to enjoying the garden more over the next few months. 

The Big Challenge was completed with miles left to spare at Kents Hill Care Home last week.  

The residents, staff, relatives and local community all came together to reach the target of 786miles for Alzheimer's Research.  

A huge well done to all for your hard work.  

As the recent Spring weather has been so sunny and mild the people who live and work at Brunel House have been making the most of the beautiful sheltered gardens. Louisa, one of our lovely hostess team took a stroll with Roy and John. 

At Brunel House we are continuing to our trips to the local area, keeping to Covid restrictions. Our last trip was to Quarry Hill. It was a beautiful clear spring day and the views of the famous Box tunnel were stunning. We are extremely lucky to have this on our doorstep. 

We always enjoy supporting our local hospice, KEMP, who partnered with Wildjac Home Grown Distillery, based in the Wyre Forest to being a fantastic gin tasting experience to the homes of many.  Our residents thoroughly enjoyed this activity, in the knowledge they they were supporting our local community whilst having so much fun!.

Those living at The Wharf Care Home have been enjoying the sunshine, planting sunflowers. Whose will grow the tallest is going to get very competitive whilst all good fun!. For those not outside we took the sunflowers to them.  Sunflowers bringing happiness inside and out. 

Happy Easter from all of us at The Wharf Care Home!

You're never fully dressed without great hair!

Our Residents have certainly missed this!

We celebrated Scrabble Day last Tuesday. Alfred Mosher Butts, inventor of Scrabble was born on 13th April, so what better excuse to remember him and this iconic board game than to hold a Scrabble competition. The residents really enjoyed playing Scrabble while they were having a cup of tea. 

We had a beautiful day today reminiscing about the past and all the things we did growing up using products they recognise and books with pictures from big events from the past, this was a benefit for everyone involved. It was lovely to see all conversations flowing about childhood memories.
