Tea, Cake and Chat Morning ☕️🫖🍰🧁

The residents loved getting together this morning to have tea and cake.

There was lots of chatting, story telling and laughter.

As they all loved being together so much this morning they all decided they’d like to have their lunch together this afternoon.

It’s always good to make time to get together with your friends and family to catch up and spend time together ❤️

AND SO IT BEGINS… 🎃Spreading Smiles with a touch of Halloween Fun

The residents enjoyed watching and helping put the Halloween decorations go up today. With lots more still left to go up! 🕷️🧟💀
We’ve put up our Halloween decorations a little early this year - not to glorify the spooky side of the season , but to bring a little extra joy , colour and community spirit into our shared spaces.
Our goal is simple : to create a cheerful , light hearted atmosphere where residents, staff and visitors can enjoy the fun together. From friendly pumpkins to playful ghosts, decorations are all about laughter, creativity and making memories.
We believe in celebrating togetherness and this is just one of the many ways we bring smiles to our home .Whether it’s a festive garland or a silly skeleton, it’s all in the spirit of fun, inclusion and shared enjoyment.

We look forward to enjoying some fun Halloween activities over the next few weeks! 🧙Happy early Halloween from all of us 👻

Dear Bert’s family ,
On behalf of the staff and residents at The Hollies, we would like to express our deepest gratitude for your generous donation of a speaker in Bert’s memory . We were honoured to care for Bert for four years and will always remember his calm and loving demeanour , his passion for music , and his love for “My Way” by Frank Sinatra . It was a joy to see how that song which he often sang brought tears of triumph to his eyes.
The speaker will bring much joy to our residents , filling our days with music and happy memories . We could not imagine a fitting tribute to Bert’s vibrant spirit . Thank you for your kindness and helping us keep his memory alive.
With Heartfelt Thanks,
The Staff and Residents of the Hollies
