Last week we got creative with handmade autumn wreaths, using our own cut-out leaves and a sprinkle of imagination. They turned out absolutely beautiful and really captured those cosy autumn vibes! 🍁🎨We also introduced an autumn sensory tray with conkers, leaves and autumn bunting that our residents enjoyed looking through. 🀎

This afternoon we explored a wonderful memory box loaned from STEAM Museum, filled with objects from the 1940s and 50s.

Residents loved handling the items and sharing memories. It sparked so many conversations, β€œI remember that!” moments and smiles.

We also made our own poppy wreaths using red and purple poppies to hang around the home.

It has been a wonderful day of remembrance ❀️

Today the Orchid came together for a truly moving Remembrance Day service. Martin kindly led us, and Julie played the bugle beautifully as we paused to reflect and honour those who served. It was a wonderful way to commemorate, feeling peaceful, proud and connected.
Lest we forget. ❀️
