What a brilliant start to January we've had at Water Royd, enjoying our live singers, pamper sessions, gents club, Karaoke party's and so much more! Here's a few photos of what we've been getting up to.

We absolutely love music at Water Royd, may that be singing on the karaoke, enjoying our Water Royd Choir every Monday morning or singing and dancing along to the entertainment that we have each week. Music really does helps us to feel good, brings More...Socialising and a great way to get us all moving.
Fantastic to see family members joining in our karaoke sessions, please keep a look out for posters on our display boards advertising the next date and time for our karaoke party! 💙

Don't forget about our Gents Club that we hold every Thursday afternoon 2-4pm, its such a lovely atmosphere and we've had some great feedback, come along enjoy a game of pool, cards, dominos, darts, a good natter and a beer!

Water Royd Christmas party day 2025 🎅

What a fantastic Christmas and New Year we've had at Water Royd over the last few weeks. Party day is always madness, but that's how we like it, each year it seems to get busier with family and friends coming along to join in, which we love to see.

Special thank you to David who once again took time out to come along and be the best Santa for all the people living at Water Royd, their family/friends and their children, it's always a pleasure David, we do appreciate you, thank you.

We couldn't have the best Christmas party day without our wonderful staff who each year put so much effort into their costumes, with the hardest part.... trying to keep it a secret until the day, which some colleagues find very difficult!

Chloe and Lyn made a beautiful snow castle grotto that our residents and family members loved, we used this for our photos and family members had pictures took with their loved ones.

Christmas dinner was stunning as always, Andrea and her team delivered the most delicious 3-course meal, with so many compliments from residents and family members, great job everyone!

Lastly but certainly not least a special thank you goes to our entertainment, Dominic who sang some great Christmas songs, got everyone involved and made the atmosphere fun and festive.

Barbie who lives at Water Royd has a wonderful son, Mick who is very talented and plays the Saxophone, Mick kindly said he would love to come in and play for everyone. He was brilliant, everyone said how much they loved listening to the sound of the Saxophone and having a dance. Thank you again Mick, we really enjoyed having you perform.

All in all a brilliant day, thank you to everyone that makes it happen. We wish you all a very Happy New Year 💙

We had a lovely day visiting Barnsley Christmas Market on Monday and getting into the festive spirit. The mulled wine went down a treat as did the mince pies. Barbie, Shirley, Betty, Eileen and Joan had great fun singing Christmas songs for passes by in the indoor market which made them smile! Everyone really enjoyed looking at the market stalls and the beautiful Christmas decorations 🎄🎅
