Yesterday we had a fantastic first session with Kyle from ‘Fitnniss’! 🥊💪

Our residents absolutely loved taking part in the mobility and exercise class this week, especially getting involved with the boxing activities shown in the video! There was plenty of laughter, encouragement, and energy throughout the session, and it was amazing to see everyone joining in and having fun while keeping active.

We’re so excited to now be welcoming Kyle into Abbeywood every fortnight and already can’t wait for the next session! 👏😊

Unfortunately, due to a respiratory outbreak within the home, we have had to make the decision to cancel this afternoon’s Animal Club session.
The health and safety of our residents, visitors and external professionals is always our priority, and limiting non-essential visits during this time is part of our infection control measures.
We will be rearranging the session and will confirm a new date as soon as possible.
Thank you for your understanding.

We’re so proud to share this little video of our lovely Yodet talking about how she first came into care.
Everyone has a story about why they chose this profession, and Yodet’s is such a genuine reminder of the compassion, patience and heart that care work is built on.
At Abbeywood, we’re incredibly lucky to have team members who truly care.

Thank you, to all of our staff, for everything you bring to our residents every single day.

Meet Yodet — a Care Assistant at Abbeywood Care Home in Tottington, who joined just 8 months ago with no previous care experience. In this short video, Yodet...

Elvis has left the building!
Last week, Abbeywood had the pleasure of welcoming an Elvis Presley tribute act for a special afternoon of entertainment. Our residents (and staff!) were thoroughly engaged, singing along to all the classics, sharing plenty of laughs and even some tears. It was wonderful to see so many smiles and laughter throughout the home. We look forward to hopefully welcoming Elvis back throughout the year!

📢 Update for Our Friends and Families – Today’s Entertainment Cancelled

We just wanted to let everyone know that today’s Harwood Harmonies visit (Sunday) has been cancelled. We’ve had a few residents feeling under the weather, so we’re keeping group activities to a minimum while they recover.

We’re sorry for any disappointment and will rearrange the visit as soon as we’re able.

Thank you for your understanding.

We had the pleasure of welcoming back the Harwood Harmonies on the 20th September, a couple of weeks ago.

It was a wet and miserable afternoon outside but the group came and lifted all our spirits!!

Thank you to the Harwood Harmonies for putting on a spectacular show for us all and we look forward to welcoming you back very soon!!
