- As you can see from the photos some of our Residents had a fantastic time at Ruxley Manor last week with Jane and Debbie!
- We will be joined by Ciara for some Slow Yoga, and will be focusing on the mind this week alongside relaxing music.
- Diane and Tia are coming to see us again. We hope to get into the garden shade and play some games with the lovely Tia.
- We welcome Shanice to the Nightingales Team and hope you enjoy your time working with us.
- Jane has arranged for a traditional Pie, Mash and Liquor Supper with all the Residents, we are really looking forward to this
- What better way to enjoy this hot weather than with Homemade Ice Cream! Jane will be making this with the Residents this week.
- Chris continues to keep our minds active with Bingo & Quizzes booked for the morning sessions.
- Calling all Families! We would like to compile a selection of photos showing happy memories, old and new, of your relatives. This would mean we would be able to make Memory Books for your loved one, unique to them, which we could sit and look through to make them smile and reminisce. They would be able to revisit the special times in their lives and talk about them with us and the other Residents. So please let us have your pictures, photos and any other memorabilia that we could put into ‘scrapbooks’.
