We had fun today getting out our parachute to end our armchair exercise class. These parachutes can provide a non competitive way to to exercise whilst developing social skills such as sharing and turn taking. It also also develops hand eye coordination ,balance and mobility.

22222 (22nd of February 2022) A DAY TO REMEMBER.

Christine was deep in concentration when working on her contribution to the animal collage.

Love is in the air....and we were celebrating it at Allingham House! What a fantastic week the residents had, enjoying the many different activities that we planned to celebrate the most romantic day of the year.

The residents started the week creating beautiful St. Valentine's cards, they let their imagination run free, showing their creativity and uniqueness in every one of them. One of our residents baked and decorated delicious heart shaped cakes for everyone to enjoy in the sweetest St. Valentine's Afternoon Tea.

Our residents were greeted by a little pup called Luna. Our resident's got to pet Luna, play fetch and give the pup treats. The residents were really happy and enjoyed the company.

Our residents enjoyed bingo last week and finished the afternoon off with a couple of games of charades.

Our lovely residents spent their morning having a nice cup of tea while having some fun with the animal shaped sewing boards.

The lovely Bluebirds came into the home to sing for us, the residents were so pleased to see them in the home and they all enjoyed their performances, the alcohol went down very well! 

We had an afternoon of Valentine's crafts, we painted small terracotta pots and decorated them. The residents who joined in really enjoyed the activity, they said it was very therapeutic and looked lovely on the dinning room tables.

We had a great day playing games, snakes and ladders, brick tower, tiddlywinks plus more. Our residents enjoyed all the different games played.
