A huge thank you to the wonderful students from Dunottar School in Reigate for bringing such joy to our residents during their recent visit! 💐🎶

They spent a lovely hour with us, sharing handmade gifts, helping with jigsaws and Scrabble, and even treating us to a beautiful singing performance.

Visits like these offer so much more than just entertainment. They spark conversation, stimulate memory, encourage social interaction, and boost mood and confidence — all of which are so valuable for our residents’ well-being.

We’re incredibly grateful to the students and their two supportive teachers for taking the time to connect across generations. We hope to welcome you back again soon! 💛

Big thanks to Susan Lee for organising this!

🎾 To celebrate Wimbledon, our residents indulged in a classic British favourite — Eton Mess! 🍓🍦 Light, sweet, and delightfully messy, it was the perfect treat to enjoy while watching the tennis. A lovely way to spark conversation, reminisce, and enjoy the summer together.

This Carers Week, we celebrated the heart and soul of our home—our incredible care team—with a well-deserved staff barbecue in the sunshine. 🍔☀️💙

A huge thank you to every single team member—those who were there flipping burgers and sharing laughs, and those who were holding down the fort inside with compassion and care. Whether you were on the grill or on the floor, your dedication never goes unnoticed.

Here’s to the everyday heroes who make a difference, one kind gesture at a time.

A very happy birthday to our lovely June! 🎉💖

Today we celebrated a truly special lady whose warmth, kindness, and gentle humour brighten every room she enters. Surrounded by friends, laughter, and a slice (or two!) of cake, it was a beautiful day filled with joy and cherished moments.

Here’s to more smiles, more stories, and many more happy returns, dear June. You’re simply a treasure. 🎂✨

Today, on the 80th anniversary of D-Day, we pause to remember and honour the extraordinary bravery of those who stormed the beaches of Normandy.

Among us is a resident who once wore the uniform with pride — a living reminder of the courage and sacrifice that shaped the world we live in.

To our veterans and all who served: we thank you, not just today, but always. Your legacy continues to inspire generations. 🇬🇧🎖️
