Rabbie Burns Night at the home is always something our residents enjoy, and this year was no different. We had a piper and an accordion player to entertain our residents and lots of singing and dancing before we sat down to a supper of haggis, neeps and tatties.

We had two 70th birthdays celebrations in January at Yohden for our Alan and Ann both celebrate their 70th birthday.  We had a birthday party for them and they really enjoyed their special day.

There is lots of work happening at Rosedale at the moment in the Lodge which is undergoing a huge refurbishment project to open April time. Our very handy maintenance man, Steve, has been such a huge help. We were delighted when our Commercial Director, James Burgan, came yesterday to present Steve our maintenance manager with vouchers for a meal out for Steve and his wife as a big thank you.

Thank you to Steve for all of your hard work and thank you James for popping in to see us and all of the work going on in the Lodge.

We celebrated Bill and Daphne's 53rd wedding anniversary in February. We wish them all the love and for many more years to come. Happy Anniversary to you both.

We celebrated Burns Night at Rose Lodge with the traditional Haggis, neeps and tatties. We enjoyed some Scottish songs during the day, along with Scottish Shortbread and tales of We had a lovely morning joining in the Burns celebrations and our Haggis, neeps and tatties were enjoyed by all.

We are delighted to show you the start of our new project, Carson Gallery and making great progress finding new talent for embroidery, sketching and painting. We can't wait to show you the final product.

Chinese New Year celebrations at Garden Hill. We listened to traditional Chinese music while enjoying stir fry with spring rolls and prawn crackers with sweet chili dip. We used a translation app to learn Chinese and discovered our astrology animals. We then enjoyed some arts and crafts sessions to colour in our astrology animals.

We enjoyed our Burns night at the home and at the end of the night the piper performed in the garden for us. The residents thoroughly enjoyed the show. We decorated the home in Scottish flags and enjoyed Irn Bru and Scottish Shortbread biscuits.

We have had some new additions in the field next to us at Field View and our residents have been popping out to see them and feeding the horses. We are so lucky to be surrounded by such lovely greenery at the home.
