Ice Cream for Ashfield Court

The residents at Ashfield Court on Tewit Well Road in Harrogate had a lovely surprise when the ice cream van popped by to see them.

The visit certainly made the lovely hot weather we are having feel like we were on holiday.  Thank you so much for visiting us.

Rossett High School

We were delighted to receive lovely pots of plants from Rossett High School for the home and residents.

They were such a lovely surprise and we can't wait to have those growing in our courtyard.

Thank you to Rossett High School for your lovely gift.

VE Day Comes to Garden Hill

VE Day may seem like a long time ago now but the residents at Garden Hill Care Home are still talking about it.  We are so lucky to have such a huge garden at the home so we had a singer come along to sing for us and we sat outside and in the conservatory to enjoy the celebrations.

We then had a gorgeous treat of high tea in the afternoon. The residents all have so many memories from that time which they were happy to share with all of the staff.

Community Spirit at Ashfield Court

Here at Ashfield Court Care Home on Tewit Well Road in Harrogate we have been amazed by the kindness and generosity of our local community.

We received some gorgeous flowers from the Oatlands Community Group and a lovely card which was such a lovely gesture and meant the world to us. Thank you for sending those to us, the staff and residents loved them.

VE Day Memories

We love hearing stories from yesteryear at Willowdene Care Home on Lizards Lane, Sedgefield and VE Day proved to be an amazing day for that.  

Meet our fabulous resident Ivy who is 105 years old.  She was 30 years old and married to Tom who was a solider when the first VE Day was celebrated and she recalls they had a big party and singing and dancing in the streets.  The atmosphere was magical and everyone baked lovely cakes, pies and treats and shared everything with their neighbours.
