We had a lovely surprise today, a beautiful sweetie hamper was delivered from one of our lovely families to say thank you to our team at Troutbeck. A massive thank you for thinking of us. Staff and residents will really enjoy digging into this smashing sweetie selection - Team Troutbeck. 

A selection of crafts that staff and residents made to commemorate remembrance day 2020. 

Residents took part in making poppies to adorn our remembrance centrepiece. We decorated our foyer and main lounge. 

We celebrated Remembrance Day sharing memories and singing songs with our residents here at Troutbeck. We had afternoon tea with scones jam fresh cream and strawberries. 

Here at Clarendon Court on Thursday 16th we had our pizza day where residents had fun assembling pizza's with the help of our staff, lots of laughs along the way and then after they were cooked, later for tea it was pizza's all around with a lovely glass of vino. 

The Westbourne residents thoroughly enjoyed a morning session of exercises with music, ribbons and balloons. It was a lovely atmosphere with some residents using hand held fans to move their hands, wrists and fingers whilst enjoying the gentle breeze effect too! 

We really got into the spirt of Halloween at Riverview, even Godzilla got an invite this year.

One of our most recent trips out was to the Kemble Aerodrome.  The airfield is being used to store retired aircraft including Boeing 747s and large passenger planes.  Its astounding to see so many huge aircraft all lined up together.

The staff at Brunel have done an amazing job in donating and purchasing essential items for a great charity called Supporting the homeless in the south west.

One of the charity's volunteers came to Brunel with accompanied by her children to collect the donations.

They were extremely grateful to all the staff here for their generosity.

We traditionally respected the two minute silence on 11-11-20 at 11 o'clock watching with interest the TV broadcast. We followed this after lunch with a typical black and white WW2 film. A very moving day, but important to us all.
