🦁 A Fantastic Day at Yorkshire Wildlife Park 🦭

Another wonderful trip – this time with Betty, Stuart and Gladys. We loved watching the seals enjoy their dinner and seeing the tiger cooling off in the water.

Research shows that spending time in nature and engaging with animals can boost our mood, reduce stress, and create memorable shared experiences. It’s a lovely way for us to stay active, curious, and connected to our community.

🚴‍♀️ "You're never too old to get on a bike! ☀️

What a brilliant day out we had with Minnie, Lillian and Jackie, who absolutely loved every minute of our bike ride to Rother Valley. The sun was shining and we laughed all afternoon. Proof that you're never too old to try something new or adventurous.

Movement and physical activity are so much more than just exercise. They’re a powerful tool for maintaining strength, balance, and independence in later life.

The NHS supports regular movement as a way to improve cognitive function, lift our mood, support heart health and reduce the risk of falls. A meaningful way to spend time connecting with others in our shared home community.

💧 Celebrating Our Award-Winning Approach To Hydration! 💧

We had the most amazing hydration party today with milkshakes, fruity mocktails, jelly pots and icy fruit pops all helping us stay cool and refreshed.

A huge thank you to our Hydration Champion Maxine and our entire team for organising such a fun and important event. Full credit all goes to to Katherine South from Rotherham NHS, whose continued support has been incredible throughout our award-winning hydration journey.

Research shows that older adults are more at risk of dehydration, which can lead to fatigue, confusion, and even hospital admissions. Fun, engaging activities like this not only keep us healthy but they also bring us together and make wellbeing enjoyable and accessible.

We’re so proud to be leading the way for excellent care in South Yorkshire with this initiative. 💙🍓🍍

The Abbeys first trip of many to the swimming pool! 💙

Ethel, Betty, Joyce and Maureen had a wonderful swimming session. Being in the water is brilliant for gentle exercise, improving circulation and providing a wonderful sensory experience that brings variety and lots of fun to our week.

At The Abbey's Care Home, we're committed to providing inclusive activities that help us reminisce and promote wellbeing for all our residents. Today's swimming adventure was a perfect example of how we're there for each other. 🌟

☀️🍰 Afternoon Tea Open Day & BBQ Fun! 🍔🌸

What an incredible day we had! The sun was shining, a little too much, but that didn’t stop the fun.

Dylan our handyman even jumped in for a quick photo, and our amazing nurses joined in with the BBQ.

🌊 A Seaside Welcome at Cleethorpes!☀️

Two of our newer residents Diana and Violet joined us for a beautiful trip to Cleethorpes where we enjoyed the sea air and fish and chips by the beach.

Research shows that spending time outdoors can boost our mood, reduce anxiety and promote a sense of calm. For our new residents, it’s also a wonderful way to settle in, build friendships, and feel part of our Abbeys community.

Trips like these are a key part of our nationally recognised wellbeing programme, creating moments of connection, joy, and belonging. 🌿💬

⛳️ Our Golf Day Out! ⛳️

Howard, John and Stewart enjoyed a fantastic outing with great company, fresh air and lots of laughs.

Research shows that regular physical activity in older adults improves mobility, reduces the risk of falls, and supports cognitive function. Golf also helps with balance, coordination, and fine motor skills, while time outdoors has been shown to improve mood and reduce stress.

Community-based activities like this strengthen our social connections, which are proven to reduce loneliness and improve quality of life as we age. This is just one way we support wellbeing here at The Abbeys.
