🌟 Staff Appreciation Week is officially underway at Metchley Manor! 🌟

This week is all about celebrating the incredible people who make our home so special every single day. From care and lifestyle to housekeeping, maintenance and every role in between, we are so grateful for our amazing team. 💙

We’ve kicked off the week with some delicious homemade pizzas from our wonderful Head Chef Scott 🍕 and today John brought smiles around the home with a drinks trolley treat for the team 🥤✨

Behind the scenes, our Business Administration Coordinator Laura has also been busy putting together thoughtful gift bags and creating special appreciation boxes, inviting team members to nominate colleagues for fun and heartfelt staff titles, a lovely way to recognise one another and spread even more joy across the home. 💫

These are just a few small ways of saying thank you to the people who bring such kindness, energy and dedication to Metchley Manor every day… and this is only the beginning. We have more surprises and celebrations to come throughout the week, so watch this space!

Here’s to our incredible team, you are truly appreciated. 💙🏡🤩💫

🏡🥕🥔Today’s activity was all about meaningful moments and material citizenship celebrating the importance of everyday tasks that bring purpose, familiarity and a sense of home 🏡💜

There’s something truly special in the simple things peeling carrots, preparing potatoes, and sharing stories along the way. These small, hands on moments can spark memories, encourage conversation, and create a real sense of belonging.

Sometimes, it’s the simplest activities that bring the greatest joy 🥕🥔✨

We had the most beautiful morning here at Metchley Manor, as Anita from Phoenix Children’s Foundation joined us with the most adorable little lambs 🐑🌸

There was such a lovely sense of spring in the air, celebrating new beginnings, Easter, and all the joy that this season brings.

What was truly special to see was just how relaxed and content our residents became when holding the lambs. There’s something incredibly calming about being close to animals a gentle, therapeutic moment that brought so much comfort, warmth, and happiness to everyone involved 💛

Our residents absolutely loved the experience – there were smiles, laughter, and some very special moments shared with these gentle little visitors.

It’s days like these that truly bring the magic to life here at Metchley Manor ✨

🌟 Running for a Cause Close to Our Hearts 🌟

We are incredibly proud to share that our wonderful carer Nazia is taking on the ultimate challenge this April — running 26.2 miles 🏃‍♂️

She’s pushing herself to the limit to stand in solidarity with those living with dementia and to support the incredible work of the Alzheimer’s Society 💙

Every mile she runs represents the millions of people whose memories are affected by this cruel disease, and the families who walk alongside them every day.

If you’re able to support Nazia on this amazing journey, we know it would mean so much 💙
