This Musical Monday we enjoyed a reminiscence themed activity called: Echoes of the Past, it truly lived up to its name 🎶 We took a joyful journey through time, exploring different music genres from the 1930s through to the 1970s, learning a little about each era’s history and revisiting the top five songs that defined those decades. As the melodies filled the room, residents were encouraged to share their own stories, fond memories of dancehalls, favourite songs, first dances, and the special moments that music soundtracked in their lives. There was laughter, nostalgia, and plenty of toe-tapping as familiar tunes sparked conversations and heartfelt reminiscence. A beautiful reminder of how music connects us to our past and to each other 💃🕺

🕯️ Holocaust Memorial Day 💜pt 1
We honoured the Holocaust Memorial Day with a carefully created, senior-friendly session that focused on equality, kindness, and remembrance, designed to be respectful, reflective, and non-triggering.
We were kindly joined by guest speaker, Ray, who shared his captivating stories of travelling to Auschwitz and other concentration camps across Germany. He also spoke movingly about his visit to the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam, and his journey to Oskar Schindler’s memorial in Israel. Residents were completely enthralled by his memories and insight.
Kevin also shared his own personal reflections from his visit to Auschwitz, adding another powerful layer to the session. Together, these shared experiences helped us honour the heroes of the Holocaust while reinforcing the importance of compassion, understanding, and standing against hatred in all forms.
As we reflected on why we honour this day, we were reminded that history must never be forgotten, and must never be repeated.
“No one is born hating another person because of the colour of his skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love.”�— Nelson Mandela

🛍️ SHOPPING & FOOD NOSTALGIA 🍲 Part 2: This week, we stepped into a Time Travel Reminiscence Session, a beautiful journey through nostalgia, stories, and shared memories. We talked about how shopping used to feel like an event, how food carried traditions and family love, and how everyday moments from the past shaped who we are today. Through old photos and nostalgic videos, we revisited laughter, lessons, and simple joys that still warm our hearts. Everyone became a storyteller, sharing personal memories that connected generations and reminded us that history lives within our experiences. It wasn’t just about remembering the past, it was about celebrating it together.

Kath spent time lovingly decorating her frame in anticipation of the children arriving for the Intergenerational workshop. She took great pride in adding lots of hearts and couldn’t wait to proudly show it off to her friends. It was a beautiful reminder that creativity has no age limit and that a little effort made with love goes a long way. With a personality as amazing as Kath’s, it’s no surprise her frame had just as much heart as she does ❤️

🎶 Jukebox Jury: And the Winner Is… 🎶
This month our brand new Jukebox Jury activity put residents firmly in control as they voted for their favourite songs during a nostalgic, wartime themed music session. 🇬🇧
With plenty of toe tapping tunes from the 1940s, there could only be one overall winner. The classic cockney favourite “The Lambeth Walk” had everyone smiling, singing along, and reliving treasured memories.
We loved seeing residents take the lead, share stories, and enjoy the power of music together. 🎵❤️
