Homemade Simnel cake made by the Home Manager and beautiful cupcakes made by Pam in activities. 

Easter cards and keyrings all ready to send to families. Residents enjoyed writing a personal message to their families and helping to make the keyrings with their photo inside.  

In life at times you meet people who blow you away with their kindness and generosity. One such individual Rebecca Dowling, who has handmade beautiful Easter cards for each and everyone of the individuals we care for here at Parkview House, Rebecca your star shines brightly, thank you so so much. 

On St Patricks Day recently everyone decided to get out in the sunshine. Granted it was a bit parky but that didn't deter us at all. Everyone undertook two laps of the garden in a relay, once their laps were completed they handed the baton, so to speak, to another person. There was Irish music in the background which encouraged everyone to sing along and incorporate a little Irish jig as they completed their laps. This built up quite an appetite to enjoy the amazing Irish Beef and Guinness pie for lunch and very tasty colcannon soup to start.

The people we care for at Parkview have been busy bunnies this Easter, putting their creative skills to work with everything from cards to eggs. It's been a smashing time. Happy Easter to you all from everyone at Parkview House. 

Vicky Swindells was voted for by staff and residents for always being cheerful and helping in any situation. David Smith was nominated by a member of the public, Dave helped the lady in distress restart her car and she took the time to ring us and let us know how helpful, polite and caring he was!

Well done and keep up the good work. 

As we stay hydrated through the lovely weather we are seeing we selected a variety of different waters to try from watermelon flavour, tonic, soda to our favourite being apple and elderflower, as we all know  it is very important to drink plenty of water and stay hydrated. 

Who doesn't enjoy cheese and crackers, today we had a selection of cheeses from cheddar to brie and halloumi accompanied by a variety of different crackers and chutneys, a delightful afternoon treat!

We have been busy planting bulbs indoors, we've chosen lillies to nurture ensuring they have enough water and sunlight to blossom we shall keep you updated with their progress.  

We are aiming to have a fantastic Easter this year and everyone in the home is super busy getting ready for the Easter celebration.
