Supporting residents to get out and about and feel part of the community is a key focus for staff at St Cecilia and a recent outing saw them on a day trip to Wells Cathedral to feed the famous swans, with a picnic in the grounds of the Bishops Palace, and tea and cakes at the city’s Conservative Club.
There was a real sense of excitement: trips out bring so much joy and anticipation for our residents and helps connect them to the wider community.
The six-mile trip on board First Bus’s 174 Bath to Wells service was a real treat too! 😊

Residents at St Cecilia have been savouring the flavours of the Mediterranean during a lively themed teatime celebrating international cuisine, with a playlist of familiar Italian tunes adding to the atmosphere.

Mealtimes for us are about more than just eating - they're about enjoyment, engagement, and social time together. And for those who prefer simpler fare, their familiar favourites are always available too.

Our Friday Market is definitely as much a social occasion as an opportunity to make purchases, and some of our residents from St Cecilia have been making the most of that!

We had a lovely sunny morning for our visit and our ladies and gents enjoyed chatting with the stall-holders as well as examining the cakes and fruit for sale and deciding what they wanted to buy.

How our residents enjoyed their end-of-term visit from pupils of Shepton Mallet’s St Pauls CofE VC Junior School! They treated us to a really spectacular show of singing and dancing, which went down a storm!

We were all so impressed by their performance, and we look forward to welcoming them back again when the new academic year begins.

It’s wonderful to get five-star feedback on our respite care like these comments from LW:

“My father who has Alzheimer's has been using this facility for 2 years now. He has weekly day respite and occasional overnight respite care. The manager and her team are wonderful with Dad. He always comes away happy. They tell me how his day has been and his activities. The team are so good with Dad.

“There are places closer to me but here Dad enjoys his once-weekly day care and his occasional overnight stays. Thank you to everyone at St Cecilia.”

The fact that you are prepared to travel a bit further with him to ensure your Dad spends his time away somewhere he’s really happy speaks volumes!

Thank you, EB, for this great feedback on your Grandad’s care at St Cecilia! Much appreciated:

“Friendly staff, happy we know he’s safe there. He settled in very well and very clean and tidy, his room is a perfect size. They are very well cared for, the manager is excellent and very friendly.”

It means the world to us when we receive a five-star review like this.

Really appreciate this testimonial from Michael T whose Mum lives with us at St Cecilia:

“My Mother was admitted in May 2022 with stage 4 dementia. From the first visit, we were made very welcome and shown around, the management and staff were very supportive in a difficult time. I was very pleased with the way things were done and the care she received.
“I had spent over ten years looking after my Mum alone before I concluded I could not cope any more and needed help. They first gave me respite dates and finally admitted her permanently.
“I have been very happy with the care and friendliness shown to Mum and me. I can visit any time daily and enjoy a cup of tea or a meal if I wish. I wish all care homes could be as good as this, giving care and love to people at a very difficult time in their life journey.”

Thank you so much. It makes our day to receive five-star feedback like this.
