🧡 What a brilliant day we've had for Go Orange Day in support of Turn2us - Tackling Financial Insecurity Together🧡

We kicked things off with an orange-themed music & movement session, followed by a delicious orange-inspired lunch. This afternoon, we turned up the fun with an orange party featuring bingo and “Pass the Orange” where the lucky person had to act out or describe something. So many laughs and joyful moments!

Huge thanks to all the amazing staff who made today so special 💫

Our orange hamper raffle and “Name the Teddy” are still running until next week, so pop by reception to enter.

We’re thrilled to have won the EFHL Inter-Home Scarecrow Competition, with none other than Agatha Christie herself! 🕵️‍♀️
Inspired by her deep connection to Wallingford, our scarecrow was a heartfelt tribute to a literary legend. From stuffing tights with socks to crafting papier-mâché heads and gathering dried grass and leaves from the garden, it was a true team effort.

👏 Huge thanks to everyone who helped bring Agatha to life!

This autumn, we invited all homes to join in a new fun and creative seasonal scarecrow challenge and we are now pleased to announce the winner🎉
What an amazing display of creativity we had this year – every scarecrow brought smiles and so much personality!

👑 Congratulations to Rush Court for their fantastic “Agatha Christie” scarecrow! The judges loved the resident involvement, the storytelling, and the clever mystery trail featuring Poirot and Miss Marple. Such an imaginative and fun entry!

👏 A huge thank you to all our wonderful runners-up – your creations were brilliant and brought so much joy.

Massive well done everyone! 🌟

🧀🍷 A delicious success!
Our Cheese & Wine Tasting Evening brought smiles, stories, and plenty of flavour. Residents sampled five perfectly paired cheeses and wines and a non alcoholic option, explored the origins and history of each vintage, and even tested their knowledge in a fun quiz!
We wrapped up with a fascinating discussion on how Chardonnay is made, who knew learning could taste this good?
