New York, New York! 🗽

We had a (virtual!) trip to the Big Apple to see the sights, including the Natural History Museum, the botanical gardens, the Bronx Zoo, and of course the Statue of Liberty, Times Square and Central Park. We even had a helicopter ride over the city and a nosey around some of the gorgeous apartments in Millionaires Row 🏙️

It bought back memories for a few and scratched that travel itch for others - a lovely afternoon had by all! ✈️

We’re proud to share that Whittington House Care Home has now been accredited with the Veteran Friendly Framework (VFF) status.

This recognition means so much to us, our residents and their families. It shows our commitment to understanding the unique needs, experiences and routines of those who have served in the Armed Forces. 💙

For families looking for care, this accreditation offers real reassurance, knowing your loved one will be supported by a team trained to provide not just excellent care, but also respect, belonging and understanding for those who’ve given so much through their service.

At Whittington House, it’s about more than care, it’s about creating a home where veterans can feel valued, respected and truly at ease.

At Caring Homes, we have always prided ourselves on the food offering we provide to residents living in our homes, focusing on high quality, nutritional and enjoyable meals. Our Group Head Chef, Steve and Head of Hospitality, Ben are always looking to continually improve this and make our residents experience of food in our care homes delicious and memorable. Over the last few months, they have come up with some new various initiatives.

One of them is a delicious new initiative that brings fresh, seasonal produce to the heart of our residents’ dining experience! 💚

Each month, we’ll be spotlighting a Seasonal Food Hero, one fruit and one vegetable, that’s at its best that time of year. Our brilliant chefs will be creating tasty new dishes each week featuring these ingredients, giving our residents even more variety, flavour and nutrition in their meals. 🍽️

Not only is this great for our residents’ health and wellbeing, but it also brings a bit of fun and creativity into our kitchens. Using British-grown produce at its seasonal peak means better quality and more sustainable meals too! But we get the residents involved too! Residents have been busy foraging for wild berries local to their home!

Keep an eye out for the delicious dishes our homes will be serving up every week and give a cheer for our amazing kitchen teams! 👨‍🍳👩‍🍳

Check out some of the dishes being created already - yum...
