We had a wonderful morning out in the sunshine, tapping our toes, dancing and reminiscing with the brilliant vintage organ which Yeatmans Funeral Directors bought along for our residents to enjoy! Thank you so much for visiting us!

Last week when the weather was slightly cooler we enjoyed a visit from Kelloggs the Therapy Horse, he is such a gentle soul. It was wonderful to see faces lighting up with warmth, laughter and comfort! Thanks as always to Linking Hearts therapy horses for a wonderful afternoon 🐴

Happy International Nurses Day!

Thank you to all our wonderful nurses.

It takes a special kind of strength to wake up every single day and dedicate your life to the comfort of others. You carry the weights of others, offer hope when it is scarce, and bring light into the darkest rooms. Today, and every day, we celebrate all of you and your beautiful, healing hearts. Happy International Nurses Day to our favourite healthcare hero's!

Paul has been chatting to Rick Jackson and the team this morning at BBC Radio Solent, along with some of the crew, about the new Dolphin 4 Boat which is being named today! We are very lucky to be able to take residents of Burwood in Poole Harbour, especially on a sunny day!

Listen on BBC sounds from 1hr 38 to hear them talking about the new Boat! (Paul comes on a little later)
