Mother’s Day Celebrations at Westbank 💐

In honour of Mother’s Day, we welcomed Terry and his famous Golden Shoes to Westbank, who had everyone up on their feet for a fantastic hour of music and dancing! 🎶✨

Our residents had a wonderful time singing along, dancing, and enjoying the lively atmosphere.

To make the afternoon even more special, the ladies were treated to Prosecco and fresh strawberries 🍓🥂
(And yes… we did share with the gentlemen too!)

A big thank you to Terry for bringing the music, energy, and those unforgettable golden shoes that always get everyone smiling.

A truly joyful afternoon celebrating all the wonderful mums and grandmothers in our home. 💖

🧘‍♀️ Morning Zen at Westbank 🧘‍♂️

We started the day with some gentle chair Tai Chi and mindful movements, helping everyone stretch, relax and wake up the body in a calm way. 🌿

Residents enjoyed slow arm movements, stretches and breathing exercises while seated comfortably, creating a peaceful start to the morning. It was lovely to see everyone joining in at their own pace and enjoying a moment of calm together.

Activities like this are great for improving flexibility, circulation and wellbeing, and of course they bring plenty of smiles too!

A wonderful way to begin the day at Westbank. 💚

💖 74 Years of Love 💖

Today we celebrated something truly special with our lovely resident Mrs Joy Lodge and her husband Godfrey, who marked an incredible 74 years of marriage together. 🥂

Godfrey came in to celebrate with Joy, and it was wonderful to see them sharing a toast and reminiscing about the many happy memories they have built over the years. Moments like this are so special and remind us all what true love and commitment look like.

Please join us in wishing Joy and Godfrey a huge congratulations on their amazing anniversary. 💐

Seventy-four years, a love so strong,
A lifetime where two hearts belong.
Through every season, come what may,
Their love has grown stronger day by day. ❤️

🌸 Celebrating the Incredible Women of Westbank.🌸

Today we celebrate International Women’s Day, a day to recognise the strength, kindness, resilience, and achievements of women everywhere.

Here at Westbank, we are surrounded every day by truly inspiring women. From our wonderful residents, who have lived through decades of history, change, and achievement, to our dedicated team of staff who care with compassion, patience, and heart.

Our residents are mothers, grandmothers, sisters, friends, pioneers, and storytellers. They have raised families, built communities, worked hard, and shaped the world we live in today. Their wisdom, humour, and strength continue to inspire us all.

And to our amazing team of women who support and care for others every single day – thank you for the kindness, dedication, and warmth you bring to Westbank. You make such a difference in the lives of our residents and their families.

Happy International Women’s Day to all the strong, wonderful women in our community!

What a truly special World Book Day morning we had at Westbank! 📚💛

We were delighted to welcome the wonderful children and staff from St Joseph’s RC Primary School and Nursery, who arrived in their fantastic World Book Day costumes and brought so much joy and energy with them.

Our residents thoroughly enjoyed listening to the children read their books, chatting together and sharing stories. It was a lovely example of how powerful connections between generations can be.

A big thank you as well for the delicious cake the children kindly shared from their World Book Day Bake Off 🍰

As former teachers themselves, Sheila and Pat were especially excited to present the school with a £100 book voucher from Westbank. Supporting reading and encouraging young people to develop their love of books is something very close to their hearts, and they were thrilled to help ensure those reading skills continue to grow.

Thank you again to everyone at St Joseph’s RC Primary School and Nursery for visiting us, sharing your wonderful costumes, stories and cakes. You made our residents’ day very special. ✨St Joseph's RC Primary School and Nursery
