50 year anniversary of JFK's death...

Debbie devised a quiz and coffee morning to test the residents' knowledge - many of them remembered where they were when they heard the news...and there were some interesting stories to tell

 

Happy Birthday Dawn!

We celebrated new resident Dawn's birthday today by singing happy birthday and enjoying a yummy cake..........

Christmas shopping gets off to an early start!

After the zumba gold routines, We brought the shops to residents today with gift catalogues to peruse, cards and gifts made by Diana, Sheila, residents and volunteers. Some soothing music, tea and biscuits and a warm cosy lounge - what could be nicer?

Denis, iris,helen c, hester, Eileen and Marie all had a computer lesson today; poor patty is still nursing a cold and of course Mary and Peggy are continuing with their art project. Ralph and Beth (our school volunteers ) came this afternoon to play scrabble etc and we had quite a few family visits too which is always lovely. Thursday is also hairdressing oand charity was kept busy in the salon all day!!

Tuesday....

Second visit to Hobbycraft who were hosting a 'knit and natter' at the store - we were treated to tea and biscuits in grand style while we continued our mission!

Meanwhile, back at the Home the residents were busy with art and craft and working on some new jigsaws Karen bought last week...

happy birthday to Gloria and Denis...

 

 

 

 hope your wishes come true, Gloria!!

Gloria had two cakes! one from MEH chef and one from her daughter.  Denis also had one made by our chef, so residents did well for cake on Friday...
