Going out and about across our homes this week!

🌳Barking Hall residents enjoyed a peaceful walk up to their beautiful local church, the walk provided plenty of time to take in the scenery and enjoy a change of surroundings together.

🫖Tenchley Manor headed to Brick Kiln Garden Centre for some shopping, festive decorations and, of course, plenty of tea and cake!

🦖Residents at Cedar Court enjoyed a trip to a museum in Oxford, which was a fantastic opportunity to explore the museum and learn something new.

🍰The Gables had a lovely afternoon exploring Cherry Lane Garden Centre, followed by some well-earned refreshments and cake.

From local walks and cultural visits to garden centre trips, these outings are a wonderful way to enjoy the community and experience something a little different. 💜

Celebrating our Emergency Services on 999 Day! 🚒🚑👮‍♀️

Yesterday, the team at Handford House headed out into the local community to show their appreciation for the incredible emergency service teams who work tirelessly to keep us all safe.

They delivered some delicious cakes and goodies as a small thank you for everything they do and received a wonderfully warm welcome in return.

A huge thank you to all our local firefighters, police officers and ambulance crews for your hard work, dedication and commitment to our community! 💜

Ashley Gardens is delighted to celebrate two wonderful achievements within the team! 💐

There’s never a dull moment across our homes!

At The Hillings, the gents got together for their regular club, taking a trip down memory lane with old newspapers, getting to know each other, making new friends and putting their knowledge to the test with a fun group quiz! 📰🏆

Whereas over at Albany, it was time to switch off and enjoy a relaxing movie! Residents settled into their favourite seats, enjoyed some refreshments and enjoyed watching the film. 🎬🍿

From quizzes to movie afternoons, it’s all about good company, new friendships and making the most of every day! 💙

Creativity is always in bloom across our homes! 🌸🎨

🫟At Walcot Hall, residents spent a sparkly afternoon decorating colourful suncatchers, with plenty of glitter added to make them extra special!

💐Over at Handford House, residents enjoyed the relaxing activity of flower arranging, creating beautiful displays to brighten up the home.

It’s lovely to see everyone getting creative, trying something new and enjoying time together! 💜

Our lovely residents at Avon Lodge recently enjoyed not one, but two wonderful days out!

A seaside trip brought plenty of smiles as they strolled along the promenade, visited the Grand Pier, spotted a very friendly dinosaur and enjoyed some traditional fish and chips followed by a delicious ice cream! 🍦🦖

Some of the residents also enjoyed a lovely trip to our local garden centre, browsing the new autumn goodies and shopping for some new clothes before sitting down for a cuppa. It was even more special to have family members join us and spend precious time together. 🍂☕️

Two lovely outings, lots of happy moments and wonderful company! 💜

Our homes have been getting creative with fun ways to keep moving! 🥊

At Barking Hall, residents enjoyed a brilliant boxing session, putting their skills and energy to the test. Meanwhile, Bedhampton Court got competitive with a spot of balloon tennis, with some brilliant shots and plenty of competition! 🎾🎈

It’s fantastic to see residents getting involved, trying something different and keeping active in ways that are fun, engaging and accessible.

Here’s to keeping moving and enjoying every minute! 💜

Our homes are filled with artists! 🎨

From colourful creations to beautiful seasonal artwork, our residents have really been getting creative across our homes recently!

At Haughgate House, a sea-themed wreath brought shells, dolphins and starfish together to create a beautiful piece for the dining room. Residents at The Manor House have been designing their own personalised door signs 🐬🫟

Over at The Chase, residents explored an exciting abstract art technique using texture paste and hot glue, experimenting with colour and texture to create truly unique artwork, while Tenchley Manor got autumn-ready with drawing and colouring. 🍂

It’s wonderful to see so much creativity, imagination and individuality shining through across our homes. A huge well done to all our talented artists! 💜

When the music comes on, it’s time to dance! 🕺🎶

There’s nothing quite like the joy that music can bring, and at Sovereign Lodge, residents love getting up, moving along and enjoying the moment!

From a little toe-tapping to getting up on the dance floor, music brings energy, smiles and plenty of fun to life at the home! 💜
