We’ve had a wonderful week at Braeside!

Our residents kicked things off with a fun-filled exercise session led by Generation Exercise—such a great way to get moving and smiling.

Out in the sunshine, our green-fingered residents got busy planting vegetables, with lettuce, beetroot, and carrots on the menu and growing nicely!

We also fulfilled a special request with a trip out for a barber visit, a pie from Greggs, and of course… a well-earned pint!
Keith wasn’t too impressed with the Greggs, but he certainly enjoyed his drink and came back looking a proper Bobby dazzler.

It’s been a week full of laughter, fresh air, and lovely moments.

Our residents hopped into the Easter spirit over the weekend with a fantastic mix of fun-filled activities.

We enjoyed creating colourful Easter crafts and indulging in some delicious springtime baking; and kept the energy high with armchair exercises and dancing to our fabulous singer Amara.

It was especially heartwarming to see so many visits from family and loved ones, making the celebrations even more meaningful for everyone.

To top it all off, some of our residents enjoyed a trip out to the local pub – a perfect way to toast the long Easter weekend!

Thank you to everyone who made it so egg-stra special and memorable.

Flower arranging wasn’t just a lovely activity for our wonderful ladies this Mother’s Day 🌸💐

Their beautiful creations didn’t stop at the craft table—they brightened up our dining spaces and made mealtimes even more special for everyone.

A simple activity bringing full of joy, creativity, and smiles to all our residents, not just those who took part.

Today we celebrate the incredible mothers, grandmothers, and mother figures who have filled our lives with love, wisdom, and kindness.

At Braeside we are privileged to be surrounded by women whose stories span generations — here are some of their lessons shared in honour of every hug given and every sacrifice made!

Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mums in our home and beyond. ❤️

Christmas cheer was well and truly on the menu at Braeside this year!

Our residents enjoyed a truly festive Christmas Day feast, starting with refreshing melon and raspberry coulis, followed by turkey with all the trimmings and finished with a classic Christmas pud!

The day was filled with laughter, joyful chatter, and the wonderful sight of friends and family coming together to share special moments. It was a truly magical celebration and a day full of memories to treasure.

A big thank you to all our fantastic staff who helped make the day so special!

The elves have been very busy this week at Braeside, spreading lots of Christmas cheer!

Eileen enjoyed a magical trip to the North Pole of Oswaldtwistle, Oswaldtwistle Mills Shopping Village & Garden Centre, browsing beautifully made gifts and warming up with a lovely hot cuppa.

Many of our residents enjoyed a Christmas outing to the The Acorn for a delicious turkey dinner and cabaret – great food, dancing, and plenty of laughter was definitely on our Christmas list!

Our fabulous Lois was delighted to be welcomed to Rhyddings for their annual community Christmas lunch. Lois loved meeting the students and sharing wonderful stories together.

Now we’re all looking forward to what the big man might bring this week… 🎅✨

On Friday our residents enjoyed a wonderful session with EverActive!

Filled with gentle, feel-good exercises designed to boost mobility, strength, mood, and overall well-being, their sessions support positive outcomes like falls prevention and meaningful social connection.

Staying active is truly the key to confidence, joy, and a vibrant life in care — and EverActive are a fantastic reminder of that.
