Shaun West, Chef Manager from Kingfisher Court was our 2025 Chef of the Year winner. He won with a menu of:

Pan fried mushrooms, madeira garlic cream on homemade toasted bread for starters
Pan fried chicken breast, red wine bacon & mushroom sauce, garlic & thyme roasted baby potatoes, sauteed green beans, roasted carrots for the main meal
White chocolate & raspberry cheesecake with raspberry coulis and a white choc & raspberry shard with burnt white choc crumb.

Shaun was delighted to win, saying:

"Winning the Chef of the Year competition means a lot to me. Lots of hard work and thought went into my menu, and it’s been both a high pressure and enjoyable experience being involved in the competition. I’m very proud of challenging myself and pushing myself outside of my comfort zone."

A massive congratulations to Shaun and all the chefs who competed this year. Also a massive well done to Catering Apprentice Logan Shamim Ahmed of Anchor - Madeleine House who won our Catering Challenge 👏

Residents at Anchor - The Manor House Knaresborough in Yorkshire have been experiencing the magic of having their bucket list dreams turned into reality. Thanks to the home’s dedicated team going above and beyond, the residents’ long-held wishes have come true.

Resident David had always wanted to ride a steam train, and with careful planning, the team at The Manor House Knaresborough were able to make that happen. David enjoyed a scenic train ride across the Yorkshire Dales, with others from the home.

Susan, another resident at The Manor House Knaresborough, was born in Ireland. She always dreamt of returning, so the team brought Ireland to her, transforming the home into a vibrant celebration of Irish culture.

Priors Hall Care Home in Corby recently opened its doors for the latest gathering of its Community Lunch Club - a vibrant afternoon of friendship, food, and shared stories designed to bring together people from across the local area.

The gathering offered a wonderful chance for local neighbours and familiar faces to reconnect. Three Priors Hall residents were especially thrilled to welcome a friend from nearby Priors Hall Park and before the afternoon ended, they exchanged phone numbers to keep in touch beyond the event.
