Yesterday we made Orange and White chocolate chip cookies 🍪
We began by washing our hands, and then each resident took their turn in breaking the eggs, sieving the flour and mixing.
We found the ice cream scoop worked really well for portioning out the cookies, and once that was done, we popped them in the oven. Everyone had a spoon full of the mix to help “clean the bowl”, bringing back lots of memories and prompting conversations.
The residents had them after tea and said they were delicious! 😋

Since Christmas, our Knitters 🧶 have been super busy knitting blankets and nests for Pixie’s Wildlife Rescue & Brambles Wildlife Rescue and so far have knitted 40 blankets and more than 50 nests that have been split between each charity.
It’s incredibly rewarding for the residents to see the animals using the things they’ve knitted. Look at that little Bunny 🐰 🥰
This wouldn’t be possible without Helen and Jo that are here every week and always on hand to help, so a big thank you to you both. ❤️

Today we had a brand new activity that we’ll trial for a month. The Monday Mixer. After the success of our Wellbeing Week in July, The Monday Mixer will incorporate a seated exercise class and finish with a smoothie , of which the residents will choose the ingredients.
🍌🍊🍎🍓🍍🍉🍋🍇🥭
This morning went really well and the residents enjoyed both the class and the smoothie. The video was easy to follow and we’ve decided that next week we’ll use fruit grown in our garden by the residents for our smoothie so that everyone can enjoy the fruits of their labour.

Although there were some faces we recognised, yesterday there were plenty of new face’s when Kids Planet Poulton came to play!
The kids were as good as gold and the residents were on great form which made for a super wholesome afternoon playing games.
There were so many adorable moments, that there was only one way to show you…. Take a look at our video! 👦👵❤️👧👴

Once a month, we’re lucky to have Martin from St Chad's Parish Church join us for a service at PRB.
There’s always a great turnout, and it allows residents that are unable to attend Church to continue to practice their faith within their own home. We’re very grateful!

With the chance of any more Summer weather quickly disappearing, we went out again this week, this time to The Blackpool Tower Ballroom for Afternoon Tea.
The Ballroom held a special place in the hearts of our residents, and they shared their cherished memories with us. Dancing with their husbands or friends on the same dance floor they were watching other people dance.
Whilst most were content to watch, we were happy to oblige Joan and Inah, who just had to have a dance. Lots of happy memories made, we had a ball(room). ❤️

A lovely little trip out this morning to Club 3000 Bingo to catch the first game! No winners this time 😩, but we had a ride to Notarianni Ices Blackpool 🍦which helped everyone quickly forget our losses!
Some residents (and staff! 👀) had never had a ‘Notties’, others not for years, so it was lovely to see everyone’s faces when they tasted it, and completely understood why they’re a cherished local institution that has been serving the community for generations. ❤️
The ice cream, coupled with a drive right along the prom, prompted conversations about years gone by and before we knew it, we were right back at PRB. Great trip!

We’ve had Bingo this afternoon, with life changing prizes, as always 😉

Wednesday we’ll have a documentary in the morning, and a quiz to follow. Bev will be in the salon throughout the day ✂️

On Thursday, we’re off out to the Bingo and back after lunch for the Knitting with Helen and Jo 🧶

Friday is slightly different, as Karl the Art Tutor is away. But we’ll still get together and get creative! 🎨 After fish & chips Sonia will be here to round off the week with an exercise class.

Liam will be fantastic tomorrow, so if any of our families or friends of PRB would like to join us, there’s always a seat for you. ❤️
