Pets help those with dementia stay calm and feel relaxed. The actual act of petting or stroking an animal can bring peace and comfort. We at Appleby encourage as many pet visits as possible and it’s such a joy to see the delight in our residents faces when animals visit!
BROWELLS WOOD PET THERAPY visited us on Tuesday with an assortment of cute and cuddly animals including a kitten, puppy, rabbit, guinea pig, chickens and the main attraction was Kevin the pony! Kevin was so friendly and not only visited the main lounge but also lots of residents in bedrooms! Such a lovely afternoon!

And they’re off! Appleby House held their first Derby races on Friday 30th May. The idea came from our wonderful carer Shelley, who helped the Lifestyle team put the event together. Paula from our Van Gogh suite was our morning compare and really got into the spirit to get our residents to place their bets with (faux) money on their favourite horse. There was Pimms flowing, popcorn popping and lots of laughter! A big thank you to all who helped and joined in with the fun!

On Thursday 8th May, Appleby House welcomed all to honour the 80th anniversary of VE Day with its very own 1940s-themed celebration.
The team worked hard organising their own special commemorative event, which saw residents and guests enjoy an afternoon of delicious food, entertainment and dancing as they embraced the spirit of the 1940s.
Team members and residents turned back the clock as they dressed in 1940s themed attire, while vintage singer Amy Putt had everyone’s toes tapping with songs from the wartime era and we all enjoyed buffet-style refreshments, including finger foods, Victoria sponge cake and tea and coffee.
Resident Peter Dovey, 92, said “It’s important for children who didn’t experience war to remember the people who fought and died to maintain freedom in Europe.
“I remember celebrating VE on the village green in Kemsing Village, Sevenoaks, where there was a marquee and bunting. We still had ration books, so it was important people in the village agreed what they were going to bring to the street party.”
What a wonderful and memorable afternoon!

All of us at Appleby would like to say thank you so much to Roy who helped us to collect and deliver our new cabin for the garden. We have plans for a lovely “She shed” for our ladies to go with our “Man shed” for our wonderful gents!
Look out for any updates and photos!
Roy has been a pleasure to work with. He is prompt and friendly and his prices are keen should you require a man with a van in the local area!
