These images reflect more than just activity — they capture a state of calm, focus, and flow. When we’re engaged in something familiar or creative, it gives us the chance to reflect, to express ourselves, and to reconnect with the things that make us feel most like us.

What a wonderful time we’ve had celebrating Diwali together! This was so much more than a festival — it was a reminder of the power of togetherness. Through sharing traditions, stories, and laughter, we embraced the spirit of diversity and inclusion that makes our care community so vibrant. Happy Diwali 🕯

As it was World Vegetarian Week, we thought we’d share a few of our delicious vegetarian options with you! 🥦

In our home we offer bespoke vegetarian, gluten-free, and other dietary-friendly dishes, because having specific dietary needs should never mean missing out on nourishing, flavorful meals.

A day out at the cricket🏏Moving into a care home doesn’t mean leaving behind the things that make life enjoyable. With support, interests, passions and routines can continue. Maintaining a persons identity and offering a continuation of life from home.

Today on National Arts in Care Homes Day, we recognise the impact art therapy has in supporting wellbeing for those who may be on a cognitive journey.

The act of creating through painting, crafting, or working with different textures, can reduce stress, spark conversation, and bring people together through shared experiences. In our home, this can help nurture confidence and offer moments of personal achievement for our family members.

With art, the real value lies not in the finished piece, but in the meaningful experience of making it. 🎨

Today we celebrate our Administrator Tamsin’s 9-year anniversary with us! Almost a decade ago, Tamsin began as a care assistant and has since built an incredible career for herself over the years.

Her story reflects her journey with us – and just how much she means to Hatherleigh.
