πŸ’› A special day at Dunniwood Lodge as we celebrated Ann and Len’s 60 years together.

A quiet, thoughtful celebration planned around them, just as they wanted.

πŸ“–

Some days stay with you long after they’ve passed and last week, we were delighted to support one of them as we marked a very special milestone with our resident Ann and her husband Len.

Our Extra Mile Award πŸ’›

Lesley joined the Dunniwood Lodge team in September, with no previous experience in care. From day one, she’s taken the time to get to know residents, notice the small things, and step in wherever she’s needed, often before being asked. Families have noticed too. One relative shared:

β€œHer compassion and commitment to those placed in her care is exemplary. A role model for the younger team”

Lesley has quickly become a trusted and valued part of the team, and this nomination reflects the difference she makes every day.

So well deserved. πŸ‘

Our Christmas party! πŸŽ„

We enjoyed live music from the wonderful Steve Love, with plenty of singing and dancing along.

And let's not forget the surprise visit from the Grinch that had everyone laughing!

The Christmas grotto was a favourite, with many stopping to chat. There were lots of smiles as we enjoyed the nostalgia. A busy, cheerful afternoon, full of music and lovely conversation.

Most residents grew up going to pantos and experiences like these tap into long-term memory which can bring a lot of joy to those living with dementia.

It's always a pleasure to create shared experience between residents, our team and families. Quality time with our loved ones means everything to us here at Dunniwood Lodge.

Have you joined us this week? We would love to know what made you smile during a recent visit to Dunniwood Lodge. πŸ₯°

🎯 Our Resident Quiz Master Lynn!

Our lovely Lynn organised a quiz this afternoon for her fellow residents and the team. We had such a lot of fun and the laughter could be heard right through the home.

It's always a joy when residents share their knowledge and talents with us. Thank you, Lynn! πŸ’œ

Our first Christmas lunch of the season. πŸŽ„βœ¨

We enjoyed a delicious carvery, a glass of wine and lots of wonderful conversation about Christmases gone by.

We chatted about Christmas pudding making, with fruit soaked in brandy months in advance and all agreed that Yorkshire puddings are an absolute must on Christmas dinner!

Having these meaningful conversations and sharing stories of our festive traditions are examples of how we create such a lovely sense of community here at Dunniwood.
