🎂 We wanted to share a heart-warming update about our dear former resident Anne, who was with us for many years. Although she had to move on to a new home as her needs grew, we’ve stayed in close touch with her lovely family and regularly hear how she’s settling into her new life.
This week, Anne’s granddaughter Annabel, an aspiring baker at just 14, surprised everyone at Alexandra Court with the most gorgeous Victoria sponge cake. And what can we say… it was a 10 out of 10!
Thank you so much, Annabel. Your kindness (and talent!) meant the world to us, and we wish you every success as you continue your baking journey. Keep shining, young lady!

❤️In Loving Memory of Ray
We are deeply saddened to share the passing of our dear Ray, a truly wonderful gentleman who became part of the very heart of our home. Ray was like family, and the bond we shared with him, his wife, and his daughter is something we will always treasure. They are incredible people, and we feel lucky to have spent so much time with them.
Ray had a brilliant sense of humour and a way of saying things exactly as they were, honest, sharp, and always in good fun. Ray brought laughter wherever he went, and his quick wit will be remembered fondly by all who knew him.
Ray also had a deep love for music, he knew the words to his favourite songs right into his later years, singing along to classics by Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong, and so many more. Whenever the old movies came on, he would tap his toes and lose himself in the music. Rays favourite film was High Society, and he often shared beautiful memories of watching it with his daughter.
He also loved to talk about his beloved Otley, the place where he grew up and which always held a very special place in his heart. Ray was a storyteller, a fighter, and a man full of spirit right until the very end.
We will miss him more than words can express. His warmth, humour, and cheeky charm will always be part of Alexandra Court.

🩵A BLUE CHRISTMAS- ELVIS MUSICAL MORNING ⛄️
We’re starting our Christmas activities a little early this year because when you’ve got this much festive fun planned, you need more than just December to fit it all in!
What better way to begin our festive activity calendar than with a Blue Christmas with Elvis showcase?
Our residents were thrilled to kick off the season singing along to Elvis’ best Christmas songs, favourite covers, and some of his biggest hits. The show also featured a wonderful life-story biography and a magical Christmas at Graceland special that had everyone smiling, clapping, and feeling the holiday spirit.
They all agreed… it’s never too early for Christmas!�With so many exciting activities lined up, we’re happily squeezing a few into November too, much to the delight of our residents. 🎄

🌺 Behind the scenes of our ITV news appearance with The Dutchy Darlings 🌺
We have had a truly wonderful week of Remembrance this November at Alexandra Court. Our residents enjoyed a full week of meaningful activities, including services, hymns, readings, poetry, and moments of quiet reflection.
We were also treated to two incredible visits from the lovely Dutchy Darlings, whose music and spirit brought so much joy and comfort to everyone. Their performances are always a highlight, but this visit felt especially meaningful.
To make the week even more memorable, we appeared on ITV News alongside the girls, giving our residents a wonderful boost and a moment of well-deserved pride.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make this week so special.

🩷In Loving Memory of Our Beloved Sheila
It has been hard to find the words as we share the sad news that our dear Sheila has passed away. Sheila had been with us at Alexandra Court for many years, and in that time she became a cherished part of our family here, Sheila’s sister was also a resident with us previously, and over the years we have grown so close to Sheila’s wonderful family, a bond we will always hold dear.
Sheila was truly a delight. She had a beautiful creative spirit and especially loved arts and crafts, always bringing colour, joy, and imagination into our activities. Sheila also adored singing & dancing to Elvis, and whenever It’s Now or Never played, she would light up the room with her smile and her lovely energy.
Sheilas presence brought warmth, charm, and happiness to everyone around her. Sheila was kind, gentle, and filled with quiet strength, she leaves behind memories that will stay with us always, and Alexandra Court won’t be the same without her.
We will miss her deeply, and we hold her family in our hearts at this time.

❤️A huge thank you to the Dutchy Darlings and ITV. Here’s the video in case you missed it. It was truly amazing to see Alexandra Court and of course the wonderful trio who featured not just on Calendar News, but on the main ITV News!
I honestly thought we would be on local news, but our fabulous Dutchy Darlings made the main national news and rightly so. We are your biggest fans, and we couldn’t be prouder.
Look out for more photos and videos from their fabulous performances in the coming days…. The Duchy Darlings
