The people living at the home love to do some flower arranging so we decided to get some flowers. There was a good turn out for this activity and it brightened our lovely home with lovely smell and colour.   Everyone was very engaged with this activity and enjoyed placing the final flower displays around our home.

We thoroughly enjoyed meeting with KEMP Hospice and are so delighted to be sponsoring their forthcoming ‘Butterfly Release’ event to be held at Bodenham Arboretum. This will be taking place on Saturday 10th September.

This very special day will see our local community join together to personally release their own Painted lady butterfly into the beautiful, butterfly friendly grounds whilst remembering their loved one.

It was just wonderful for the team and some of our ladies and gentlemen to be able to start planning this unique and memorable  day. 

We love our Oomph exercise class led by Tom at Kings Manor Care Home, movement is so important and this class is so fun the people living at the home look forward to it.

For National Cheese Day we had another cheese and wine evening, it was enjoyed so much last time we had even more residents choose to join us for this one.  We think that we might have to do this again soon.  There was a lovely selection of cheese and crackers served with refreshments.

The people living with us wanted to go on trip to Stover lake for a lovely walk and a picnic.  There was lots of wild life to look on the walk around and the lake was beautiful. The residents had a lovely day and are looking forward to going back again.

The people living with us got involved with making lavender bags today. The lavender was stripped from one of our own plants, then square pieces of material were sewn together and filled with lavender. To finish we added a nice piece of ribbon to make the bags look more decorative. They loved the activity and you could hear a pin drop; they were so engaged.   The lavender bags were shared with everyone.

The people living with us had a lovely morning making cupcakes and then helping to decorate them afterwards. The cakes will be served with afternoon tea this afternoon so everyone can enjoy them. Yummy!

One of our residents, Philip, enjoyed a lovely afternoon watering the plants, flowers and tomatoes in our greenhouse.  He used to garden with his dad so this brought back many happy memories.  

With the weather cooling down we enjoyed a walk and getting out into the fresh air.  With our home being in a rural location we are lucky to be close to our local duck pond.  How lucky we are to have such a beauty spot on our door step?

We hosted our very own Hawaiian Party at the home on Friday. It was a fantastic day that was enjoyed by the people living at the home and the team here too.
There were Mocktails, Food, Live Entertainment and lots of singing and dancing. The people living at the home really loved it and they can not wait for the next party.
