Here at Bracebridge Court we like to make exercise a fun rather than a chore. Balloon fun is always one of the easiest yet most effective exercise we do. It brings so much joy and laughter to every single person.We try to keep our residents entertained and amused by our inventive original ideas!. We are always thinking of new ways to keep our residents fit and healthy whilst enjoying themselves in the process..😊
The exercises are designed to promote benefits such as cognitive stimulation, tracking and reacting to the balloon or balls movement stimulates the brain and may help cognitive function. It can increase focus. Keeping the balloon up in the air or watching the ball helps with concentration. Helping keep the mind focused and in the present moment. Social and emotional benefits also through smiles and laughter bringing a connection and mood enhancement.
We have more exercises that we will be trying out very soon!! 🙌💪🏼👍

Thank you to everyone who came to our big prize community bingo session today. We had a wonderful afternoon. Some very lucky winners walked away with multiple prizes!
All the money raised will go into the residents amenities fund which enables us to hire entertainment such as singers etc. So once again thankyou for your support. We hope to host another before Christmas ( which isn't very far away! 🙈) so Keep your eyes peeled for the date!

Residents here at Bracebridge Court - Runwood Homes Senior Living came together today to celebrate the importance of World Mental Health Day with smiles, laughter, and a little bit of music magic!
We tried our hand at "laughter yoga" ( yes it is of a real thing 😉). From laughter yoga that had us all giggling, to fun and games, relaxation art activities and classic dominoes, our day was filled with joy, smiles and connections with each other.
We also went for a Runwood Ramblers walk, giving both physical and mental health in the fresh air. 🍁🍂

We all sang together, played together and most importantly, we reminded ourselves that taking care of our mental health is just as important as our physical health. We also concluded that laughter truly is the best medicine!;😂🎵🎶😂

Another fantastic day at Bracebridge Court this morning!!!! 😀
Colouring, word searches, crosswords and not forgetting a good old chin wag. Bill brightened the day with his funny banter making everyone laugh 😃
Then it was off out in the minibus for lunch for some of our residents. Our trip out was to a lovely restaurant in the countryside. Everyone enjoyed a hearty carvery meal and some even enjoyed the pleasure of a pint of real ale which went down a treat!🍺.
On the trip home we all reminisced, singing some war time songs. This was a perfect way to end a wonderful afternoon ✨️
Everyone all agreed it had been a great afternoon from start to finish!!!

What a wonderful turnout for our knit natter and nibbles activity! We also enjoyed a good old sing song too ... feet tapping, needles clicking and the delightful sound of some old time music songs could be heard along the corridor... the lovely tunes made others come along, changing their mind after hearing what fun was being had !! 🧶🧶🎶🎵🎤
Then upstairs, in the activity room a bit of friendly competition...it was the ladies against the gentleman in a mini dominoes tournament... it was declared a draw so a rematch will have to take place!! 😉

A busy day today ... from checking on the winter vegetables ... and my goodness was this a parsnip of all parsnips !!! 😉...

A busy day today ... from checking on the winter vegetables ... and my goodness was this a parsnip of all parsnips !!! 😉
Then some ball aerobics to get our bodies moving followed by word games and quizzes ... a full body and mind workout 😃
We then finished off with a game of bingo ... and it was definitely a full house! Not a seat left in the room! 🥰😄

Off out for a walk this morning with some of our Runwood Ramblers. The warm autumn sunshine was truly amazing! Sandra said she could've done with her sunglasses! 😎Maureen remarked how it was hard to believe that it is October as it was so warm.
We all agreed what a beautiful season Autumn is and how spectacular the different colours of the leaves are on the trees.. 🍁🍂🍃🍁

A heartfelt thankyou to chris flower shop⚘️

Everyone here at Bracebridge Court, staff and residents, would like to send a sincere thank you to Chris and his staff for their beautiful act of kindness.
Today each of our residents were surprised and delighted to receive a hand delivered individually wrapped red carnation- a meaningful gesture brought smiles, chatter and warmth throughout our home.🥰
This lovely surprise couldn't have come at a more perfect time, as it coincides with our October theme of "kindness" here at Bracebridge Court. It's acts like these that remind us how powerful a small gesture can be, and how kindness can bloom when shared.

Thank you once again to Chris for brightening our residents day ❤️⚘️

What lovely day today! Norma and Hazel had some fun with some ball and bean bag games. The smile on Norma's face says it all! 🥰
Some of our residents showed their talents off with some beautiful art work. And the dominoes experts got down to a bit of practise. It was hat off to Ann as the winner of todays match( a point to the ladies! 😉)
Also how could we not make the most of today's glorious autumn sunshine, by spending a bit of time in the garden, a perfect way to get that vitamin D in ! Lesley taking in the beautiful blue sky, Hilda admiring and smelling the calming scent of the lavender. Jean picked some tomatoes from our tomato plant and some family members enjoyed a cuppa in the sun too ...a perfect way to spend time with loved ones ❤️
