As we are in Lent, today's service with Father Emmanuel was a calm, peaceful and reflective time. The residents took Holy Communion and sang along to the hymns and joined in with the prayers. A beautiful service.

Spring is in the air!!! Lovely walks in the garden today looking at the daffodils and spring buds. Billy also enjoyed a game of football in the sunshine. Being outside in the sunshine boosts mental wellbeing and lifts the spirits after a long and cold winter.

A lovely walk in the garden for Billy. He was able to admire the new garden wall art that arrived yesterday. Great to see the residents' painting of the art displayed in the garden for everyone to enjoy.

Hazel had a fun time playing the tambourine while Ruthy relaxed with the Rainforest sensory resource.

As part of Craigbank's whole home approach, the residents enjoyed painting the wall art that the Regional Gardener brought. It was a great fun activity using the acrylic paint brush pens and what a beautiful job they made of painting the swallows.

The wall art in the is now hung on display in the garden. It really does look beautiful ❤️.

A lovely afternoon for Billy and his daughter. A nice walk round the grounds looking at nature and the daffodils. Then a trip down Saracen Street to the local library. Lovely to see Billy so happy, he especially liked looking at the old photographs of Possil Park as far back as the 1920's.
