We had so much fun this Halloween, from pumpkin carving and decorating to creating a group spooky collage and most of all our monster mash party. Our residents had a little Halloween frightful feast and danced the afternoon away to "Ghost busters " Thriller and many more.

Our window display for Remembrance Day.

We also have poppies available at reception for residents, relatives and staff to donate to.

What can be better than your morning paper being delivered by your friends with a smile? One of our residents loves to help out and rises early every day so the newspaper round is a perfect role for her and she is delighted to get involved. A knock on the door with a smile is a perfect start to any morning and much appreciated by our residents.

Our residents here at Ashfield Court really enjoyed a traditional afternoon tea, there were lots of conversations, cake and bubbles.

We had great fun making bonfire biscuits at Cavendish Court. We decorated our biscuits like fireworks using icing sugar and sprinkles, we had great fun getting messy and enjoyed eating our handiwork with a cup of tea mmmm delicious!

Our residents really enjoyed watching the garden fireworks on Bonfire Night at Carmel Lodge. We had a lovely night enjoyed by all residents and staff.

There is no end to the talents of our residents at Cedar Court, they take on every challenge set them!  They were very keen to take part in the Cranleigh competition for the best 'Guy' to be thrown on the local bonfire. Our residents who are living with dementia created the beautiful artwork with paper spinning wheels, which they all thoroughly enjoyed.  The 'Guys' were created by some of the people living at Cedar Court, assisted by Kathryn our activities assistant. A big thank you goes out to Kathryn’s parents for making the Paper Mache heads.

Not a holiday that those who live here are used to celebrating, but our Halloween celebrations turned out to be such a fun filled day.

Parkview House was on fire for Halloween, with a singing sensation entertainer giving off Phantom of the Opera vibes, fantastic decorations and our staff arrived in some great fancy dress costumes for our residents party

Not only did our residents enjoy preparing for Halloween with pumpkin painting, but our staff did to!

We set up our pumpkin painting station for the staff to show off their artistic skills ,they had a lot to live up to after seeing all the fantastic colourful decorations produced by the people living with us, but everyone was suitably impressed by all of these creations🎃👻
