We had a wonderful time celebrating International Men’s Day with our amazing gentlemen here at The Devonshire!

Our morning started with a special Men’s Club session where the residents enjoyed a variety of activities, including board games and the classic “4 in a Row.” The room was full of friendly competition, laughter, and great conversations.

To make the morning even more enjoyable, our gentlemen were treated to pastries and warm bacon rolls - a big favourite! Our manager also joined the group for a cup of coffee, making the moment even more special and meaningful for everyone.

It was a lovely day recognising and celebrating the wonderful men in our community. We look forward to many more moments like this at The Devonshire Care Home.

What an absolutely amazing day we had celebrating International Movement Day with the people living with us!

Our home was full of energy, smiles, and more...movement. We planned a variety of activities to make sure everyone could join in and enjoy the day in their own way.

Residents who stayed at home took part in a range of gentle exercises, music and movement sessions, chair-based workouts, and sensory activities. A big thank you to our carers and our physiotherapist for supporting and guiding the residents throughout the sessions.

Some of our residents enjoyed a wonderful outing to the local bowling centre! They had a fantastic time playing bowling, cheering each other on, and sharing lovely moments together. After the game, everyone enjoyed a warm cup of coffee and a slice of cake - a perfect treat after an active morning!

To keep everyone refreshed, we set up a special hydration table offering different fruit-flavoured drinks like orange lemonade, as well as refreshing infused water with mint, lemon, and cucumber. It was a huge hit with the residents!

We are so proud of our team for creating such a fun, engaging, and memorable day!

Those living with us took part in different activities that brought lots of smiles and engagement - from arts and crafts, singing sessions, games, gentle exercises, and relaxing tea afternoons. It was lovely seeing everyone so involved and enjoying each moment.

We also celebrated several birthdays, making each resident feel extra special with cards, cakes, music, and great company. Thank you to our amazing staff for ensuring every celebration was warm and memorable.

It’s always wonderful to see the happiness on our residents’ faces as they connect, laugh, and share these beautiful moments together. Thank you to our residents, families, and dedicated staff who help make our home such a caring and lively community.
