Our Encore residents had a wonderful time today preparing and baking delicious cheese twists with our lovely volunteer, Bren! 🧀✨

Baking days are always a favourite here and with December just around the corner, we’re excited to begin some festive treats next week as we get ready for Christmas. 🎄🎅

Spooktacular fun at The Russets and Sherwood 👻🎃

We had a frightfully good time celebrating Halloween with a special performance from Mini Concerts, who got everyone singing and dancing along to favourites like Thriller! 🕺🧟‍♀️

One of our brilliant activities coordinators, Jim, (looking very festive as a pumpkin!) helped bring the magic together.

Over the past few weeks our residents and staff have been busy creating some wonderfully creative Halloween crafts that made our home look fantastic. 👻👩‍🎨

Take a look at the festivities below 👇

Cheers to 100 years! 🍻

We’re so proud of our residents who helped plant and grow the hops that went into Hundred Not Out, St Monica Trust’s resident-brewed centenary beer! 🍺

It’s been a joy to be part of this collaboration celebrating 100 years of St Monica Trust — from planting to pouring!

🌸 Here are some more lovely moments from Founders' Week! 🥂

Last week, we had the pleasure of joining Sandford Station retirement village - St Monica Trust for a garden party. Over tea, sandwiches, scones and cake, there was plenty of time to catch up, share stories and enjoy good company.

It was a lovely way to mark 100 years of St Monica Trust and reflecting together on what community really means. 💜

A big thank you to everyone who helped make it such a memorable day!
