Daisy & her friends from the ‘through the eyes of a child programme’ are taking part in a fundraising walk for Age UK💛

This is all Daisy’s idea, and she would be over the moon to be supported in anyway you can 🌟

It’s going to be a fun-filled afternoon for a fantastic cause, and every bit of encouragement or donation will make such a difference 🍬 🧁

If you’re able to donate, here is the link to Daisy’s JustGiving page:

✨ Yesterday we held our incredible first Dementia Café at The Meadows Room, Pulborough Village Hall ✨

What a community we have 💙
A huge thank you to everyone who came along and supported us, especially Lynn & Isla from PDCCA, Lottie our Pulborough Community Warden, Ross & Louisa from the Billingshurst Community Warden Team, Megan from Age UK, Jeni & Naomi from W. Bryders & Sons, and Maria from Mary How Trust.

It was wonderful to see so many members of our local community together with some of our residents from The Anchorage and our amazing team members 🫶

The tea & coffee were flowing ☕, the homemade cakes were delicious 🎂 thanks to our talented chefs.

A very special thank you to our Entertainer Rustyn George for his unforgettable performance ⭐ We will be doing a separate post dedicated to his amazing music and the joy he brought to everyone. 🎶💃

Our visitors were able to chat with all the professionals who came to support the event, reminding us just how important groups like these are for support, connection, and friendship. The activity books were also a huge hit 📚✨

We’ve received such amazing feedback and are already looking forward to the next one. Thank you to everyone who helped make it so special 💙

🎯🎲🎳 What a fantastic week we’ve had 🎯🎲🎳

We were delighted to welcome Paul from Horsham District Council once again. He always ensures we have an amazing range of chair-based games and sports to try, creating so much joy, laughter, and connection along the way.

These visits are always a highlight for our residents, and Paul never fails to leave us with smiles, stories, and special memories. We’re incredibly grateful to Horsham District Council and for Paul's continued dedication and the positive difference he makes 💪🏼

As if we couldn’t be any prouder 💫 our team go and do this …..

Thank you everyone who sponsored the girls.
Our wonderful stars, Daisy & Freya from the Through the Eyes of a Child programme, took part in the St Mary’s School Mini Marathon on Saturday, helping to raise vital funds for a brand-new sensory room at school.

With Priya, our newest member of the team cheering them on from the sidelines, it was a really special moment for everyone involved.
We are absolutely bursting with pride for our incredible team of stars ✨

🌿 A New Garden Adventure Begins 🌿

We were delighted to welcome residents from The Anchorage Care Home for their first visit to West Chiltington Nurseries 🌸

Manager Sam and resident Judy spent the morning exploring, gathering ideas, and finding inspiration for an exciting new project…

🌼 The residents are taking over the garden planning🌼

From lavender-lined displays to colourful perennials, there was plenty to spark creativity and bring ideas to life 🌱

And it clearly meant a lot… 💌
“Thank you for such a beautiful morning… I hope we will end up with a beautiful garden.” Judy

We can’t wait to see how their garden vision grows…

What a lovely surprise we had today💛

We were delighted to welcome two young visitors, Annelin and Lynn, all the way from Calvijn College in the Netherlands. They are on a school trip exploring village life, learning about the older generation, and discovering what makes communities like ours so special.

We were more than happy to help and the timing couldn’t have been more perfect 🎉 Our wonderful resident Cynthia celebrated her 102nd birthday today and was absolutely delighted to meet them. She shared stories of life during the war and her many years in the village of Pulborough, making it a special moment for everyone.

It was a joy to meet such polite and thoughtful young people, and a lovely opportunity to share how proud we are to be part of village life here in Pulborough. 💚
