March has been a truly special month across our homes, filled with meaningful celebrations and shared experiences that have brought residents and teams together ✨

From raising awareness during Nutrition and Hydration Week to enjoying the energy and fun of St Patrick’s Day, there has been something for everyone to take part in. We also proudly celebrated International Women’s Day, recognising the inspiring women within our communities, and marked Mother’s Day with thoughtful moments of love, gratitude, and reflection 🌷 🚺 🍎 🍀

Life across our 46 homes is shaped by these moments, both big and small. They create a sense of belonging, spark conversation, and bring joy to everyday life, making each home a vibrant and supportive place to live 🏡💜

Behind every celebration is the dedication and care of our incredible teams, whose passion continues to create engaging and meaningful experiences for our residents 👏💜

What a truly magical time we had at Chelmsford City Racecourse , where our residents and team were delighted to attend the annual “Time for a Cuppa” event. We felt incredibly honoured to be invited once again by the wonderful teams at Dementia UK and Essex Dementia Care , bringing everyone together for such a meaningful and joy filled occasion☕

From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and full of life, with a fun packed afternoon that had something for everyone. Our lovely residents enjoyed games of bingo, took part in an exciting raffle, and indulged in a selection of delicious cakes, all while sharing laughter and creating special memories together🍰

One of the highlights of the day was a very special visit from Essex Therapy Dogs 💟💟, whose gentle and friendly companions brought comfort, smiles, and lots of affection to everyone they met. The joy on our residents’ faces said it all as they spent time with these wonderful animals 🐾

To make the day even more unforgettable, we were thrilled to meet Manny, a truly stunning racehorse who captured everyone’s attention and admiration. It was a unique and heart-warming experience that added an extra touch of magic to an already incredible day 🐎

What a truly magical early St. Patrick's Day celebration it has been 🍀🎶

At The New Deanery Care Home , the day came alive with the uplifting sounds of a wonderful Celtic band, Shurig, whose music echoed through the halls and created an atmosphere full of joy, warmth, and togetherness . From the very first note, smiles began to spread, feet started tapping, and the spirit of the day was felt by everyone

Our lovely residents were at the heart of it all, fully embracing the moment as they clapped along, sang, and even joined in with the fun. There was laughter, movement, and a beautiful sense of connection as the music brought everyone together in celebration of Irish culture 🌈

It was more than just a performance, it was an experience filled with happiness, energy, and shared memories that will be treasured. Moments like these remind us how powerful music can be in lifting spirits and bringing people closer ✨

A heartfelt thank you to Shurig for sharing such incredible talent and spirit with us. We’re already looking forward to many more special musical moments ahead.

Wishing everyone a joyful and happy St. Patrick’s Day ☘️ 💟

Today at The New Deanery Care Home we were proud to welcome the incredible team from Training2Care to deliver their powerful and inspiring dementia awareness training to our staff 💟

Training 2 Care UK Ltd are known worldwide for their scientifically and medically proven approach, designed to give those with a healthy brain a realistic insight into what living with dementia may feel like.

This innovative method goes beyond theory. It encourages reflection, empathy, and practical change, helping care professionals understand the small but meaningful adjustments that can be made to daily practice and surroundings to truly enhance the lives of people living with dementia

We are so grateful to the Training 2 Care UK Ltd team for sharing their knowledge and passion with us. Investing in this kind of learning ensures we continue to provide compassionate, person centred care that makes a real difference to our residents and their families 🥰
