Minibus outing 🚐🚐

This week we didn’t travel far, we went to a local coffee morning in the village.

The residents were very warmly welcomed, and enjoyed refreshments served by the volunteers.
They engaged in conversation and soon realised they had so much in common with others in attendance.

Thank you for such a wonderful morning.

🥧MAKING JAM TARTS🥧

Yesterday at Chater Lodge we weren’t afraid to roll up our sleeves and get stuck in! We spend a lovely morning rolling out our sweet pastry to make the most beautiful jam tarts! Everyone had a turn and used very generous amounts of jam which just helped make them the very best!

After all our work was done our lovely kitchen staff helped us bake them in the oven and we were able to enjoy them as an afternoon snack with a cup of tea!

Activities like these allow our residents to enhance their motor skills and using their hands and can also add a lovely reminiscence aspect for some!☺️

🎃 Halloween Celebrations 🎃

Residents, patients and colleagues got into the Halloween spirit of things by creating beautiful autumnal displays with painted and carved pumpkins, flowers and wreaths.

Many of our care homes and hospitals hosted fun-filled Halloween events with delicious treats, mocktails, live music entertainment, costume competitions and community celebrations.

It's safe to say that everyone had a spooktacular time. 👻

Here are some of our favourite moments.

👻🎃 Bewitching Tricks and Spooky Treats 👻🎃

Springvale Court Care Home, in Wrekenton, , was a den of ghoulish activity as the home’s spooky Halloween Adams Family got into full swing.

Colleagues embraced the spirit of Halloween by dressing up as The Addams Family. Morticia, Gomez, Pugsley, Wednesday, Uncle Fester, Cousin Itt and Lurch all visited Trinity Square in Gateshead town centre to hand out goodie bags for children and adults, and everyone had the opportunity to have their photo taken with the Addams Family.

General Manager, Gemma Rooney, shared: “Our staff love any excuse for fancy dress day! – we’ve all had a brilliant time.”

The team at Springvale Court commented: “It has been such a fun day. It was wonderful to see everyone go to so much effort to get into the Halloween spirit. And seeing the smiles on everyone’s faces’’.

🔍 Thursday Night Murder Club at Caldy Manor 🕵️‍♀️

It was an evening to remember at Caldy Manor Care Home on the as residents, colleagues and friends from Heswall & District Ladies Circle turned detectives, suspects and stars in the home’s very own Thursday Murder Club-themed evening.

Inspired by Richard Osman’s much-loved mystery novels, there were hilarious plot twists and some truly Oscar-worthy performances, the night was packed with laughs and fantastic acting from everyone involved.

A huge thank you to all, the experience was a roaring success.

Safe to say… no one saw the ending coming! 😉
