Residents recently worked together for their entry for the Colten Christmas Cake Challenge, choosing to make a Victoria sponge after finding inspiration online.

Everyone was involved in the process, from mixing the batter to rolling out the fondant icing and cutting out star shapes. The finished cake reflected the group’s shared effort.

Our residents came together for a creative afternoon, turning a surprise donation of fabric into a giant bow for the Activity Room door 🎀

With Daphne leading the sewing, everyone joined in — stitching, encouraging, and laughing. When they finished, they stepped back to admire their hard work, which we think looks brilliant!

Our residents recently came together to select a charity close to our hearts. After thoughtful discussions and a lively vote, we’re delighted to support Helping Older People New Forest this year.

The room was filled with laughter, conversation, and a real sense of community as residents placed their votes and watched Pat carefully count the results. It was a heartwarming moment, showing how coming together can strengthen connections and support a cause that matters.

Our residents recently had a wonderful minibus trip to Rhinefield, enjoying the towering trees, roaming ponies, and peaceful woodland.

Along the way, we played our Advent Calendar game, adding festive fun and smiles to the journey. June said it was magical to spend time in the fresh air with friends — a truly heartwarming winter outing!

Residents from our home and other New Forest homes, alongside some of their relatives, began the festive season in fine voice, performing as part of a 50-strong choir to the delight of visitors at St Thomas, Lymington, as part of the church’s annual Christmas Tree Festival.

Further relatives and members of our team were there to support the day, which was thoroughly enjoyed by all. The choir was conducted by our very own Music and Arts Partner, Fiona.

Pam, a resident at Linden House, said:
“It makes you feel so warm and Christmassy, and I do love seeing all the trees.”

Alongside their Christmas favourites, the choir also helped decorate five trees, each donated by one of the participating care homes, in support of the church’s charity, Friends of St Thomas.

For the 4th year in a row, Colten Care residents, family, visitors and staff have generously donated gifts of chocolate to less fortunate children this Christmas, supporting the Chocolate Elf campaign https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheChocolateElf/

Kingfishers along with the help of all our Hampshire homes and our Support Centre, have this year donated a whopping 232 selections boxes and calendars. With the teams donating more and more each year, it’s wonderful to be able to help.
