So today was the perfect excuse to warm up with a hot cuppa.

We spent a cosy morning sampling a variety of delicious teas, from familiar favourites to something a little different. Alongside the tasting, residents learned some fun tea facts and a took part in a quiz.

There was plenty of chatting, laughter and reminiscing over cups of tea.

For those who preferred to stay indoors, they headed foe the cinema to watch a film. Comfy seats and plenty of warmth made for a perfect afternoon.

National Bird Day & National Shortbread Day.

What a tweet-tastic and tasty couple of days we have had, celebrating National Bird Day & National Shortbread Day.

Residents enjoyed a full flock of activities including Bird Bingo, grabbing some Binoculars for some Bird spotting, and getting creative by learning how to draw different birds and also painting their own feathered friends.

And of course ..... no celebration would be complete without a treat. Our bakers rolled up their sleeves to make some delicious Millionaires Shortbread.

🍍 Veganuary Month 🫑

January 1st commenced with a vibrant platter featuring an assortment of freshly cut vegetables and fruit, accompanied by pistachio nuts, dark chocolate, hummus, and yogurt for dipping.

Alongside the tasting, residents had a group discussion about what Veganuary and plant-based foods are, sharing thoughts and learning something new.

To make it even more exciting, residents chose a vegan recipe to create together during Veganuary.
