Thank you to Teesside Family Foundation from the residents of Willowdene Care Home on Lizard Lane in Sedgefield who received this tablet to enable them to keep in touch with relatives even more with video calls during this time.

Such a lovely gesture and very much appreciated.

Lockdown Birthday's have become quite the normal for us here at Astor Care Complex but it doesn't mean we don't still like a surprise and that's very much what we gave to our lovely manager, Kelly Angus on her Birthday last week.

Happy Birthday Kelly, we hope you had a lovely day with us all.

We received a lovely letter in the post from the family of the late Cyril Courtenay who lived with us at Astor Care Complex.

We were delighted to hear you are still thinking of us and can't wait to see you when this is all over.  Thank you for the lovely letter.  It really did mean the world to us.

Residents daughter Lynn delivered some beautiful home made cup cakes this morning  for staff and residents . These are lovely and went down well with a cup off tea- Thank you Lynn. 

Yohden Care Complex had a surprise visit today from Debbie Cox who is the lead blood transfusion Coordinator at North Tees's Hospital.  Debbie arrived at the home with an award for the team at Yohden Care Complex for all of their hard work during the current situation.

Thank you so much, it was most appreciated and the staff were absolutely delighted to receive this from you.

Here at Field View Care Home on Hesleden Road we have missed all of our relatives who usually come to visit us but our residents have had some great calls and video calls with you all.  Here our two of our ladies enjoying chats with their families on the cordless phones at the home.

We've not been able to get out and about at Field View Care Home but we have had a lovely week playing connect 4, jigsaws and chilling reading a magazine in the sun.

We are looking forward to seeing you back in the home when you are able to help us with our jigsaws and have a game of Connect 4 with us.
