HE DID IT!!! 🎉

After 4 gruelling, agonising, eternally long hours of silence… GARETH has finally spoken again! 🙊➡️🗣️

This morning, all eyes (and ears) were on Gareth as he tackled the ultimate challenge: keeping quiet. For four whole hours. That’s 240 minutes. 14,400 seconds. Not that anyone was counting… 👀

If you know Gareth, you’ll know this was like asking a fish not to swim, or a dog not to bark. But he did it! And yes, we checked—he didn’t even whisper. 🫢

A huge round of applause (and a few words, finally) for Gareth! 🥳👏

Thank you so much to everyone who sponsored Gareth during his epic 4-hour silence challenge (we’re still in shock that he managed it). 🙃

Thanks to your generosity — and Gareth temporary vow of silence — So far we have nearly raised an amazing £300🙌

Every penny will go toward throwing a BIG Christmas party for our lovely residents — because they deserve nothing less than sparkle, joy, and maybe even a little dancing! 💃🕺🎅

Garth can now talk again… and he hasn’t stopped since. 😅

🍎📚 The Kirkburn Classroom 🍏🎨

The team at Kirkburn Court Care Home in , Scotland, recently launched a new initiative called ‘The Kirkburn Classroom’.

The first session was led by Ina, a resident at the home, who took on the task of teaching everyone how to crochet.

Ina admitted she hadn’t done any crocheting for quite a while and warned she might be a bit rusty – but as soon as she picked up the hook and wool, she was off to a flying start!

She showed great patience helping everyone get started and all involved commented on how much they enjoyed the experience.

The team was pleased to report that almost everyone behaved well in class – with just a little bit of mischief.

What a fantastic afternoon. 👏

Stay tuned to find out who’ll be hosting the next class.

🎉 Bruce Turns 100 in True Highland Style at Seaview House 🎉

There was no quiet tea party for Bruce’s 100th birthday – the much-loved Navy veteran had other plans. From kilts and Highland dancers to fish and chips, live music and a showstopping cake, Bruce celebrated his milestone in style, surrounded by fellow residents, friends and family.

The celebration ended on a royal note – with a birthday card from King Charles himself and a surprise invitation to the royal tent at the Mey Games.

Bruce’s verdict on the day?

“Yes…now I’ve started making a list for next year.”

Here’s to Bruce – Happy 100th Birthday! 👏
