Chocolate Works Care Village

Chocolate Works Care Village Our dedicated team provides high-quality residential, dementia, nursing and short-term respite care. When we say this is a village, we mean it.

The Chocolate Works Care Village, York is a unique care community set in a lovingly restored, iconic building (the former headquarters of Terry's of York chocolate factory). offering a place you can call home while receiving the care that you need. Within the complex we’ve carefully chosen a vast array of amenities. The result is everything you could need to relax, socialise, stay active and even

spoil yourself – all on your doorstep. An internal market square features a shop, a café, a restaurant and a bistro. And depending what mood you, your family and your visitors are in, there’s a hairdressing salon, a gym, a cinema room, a nail bar, a hydrotherapy suite and a sweet shop to enjoy. We even have our own on-site pub, The Duke of York.

Bike Belles🚴🏼‍♀️✨

Recently we warmly welcomed back York Bike Belles after a long break from The Chocolate Works! We are so happy our monthly trips have recommenced as it’s such a unique opportunity to see the sights of York on their Rickshaw bikes🏞️

Both residents and some family members have been enjoying rides around Rowntree Park, down by the riverside, The Knavesmire and even The Minster!

Rides are occurring monthly until November so plenty time for everyone to have a go🥰

12 months to the day since I joined the wonderful Chocolate Works Care Home.

I’ve loved spending time with our wonderful residents, their families, fellow professionals, and of course my incredible work family.

Working each day in such an iconic and beautifully restored building makes the experience even more special — a place full of character, history, and warmth that truly feels like home.

Thank you to each and every person who has supported me throughout this amazing journey. Your encouragement and kindness have meant so much.

Here’s to many more years, memories, and achievements to come. 💙🩷🫶🌟

Honouring VE Day together 💜🇬🇧

Some of our residents have spent time this week creating beautiful VE Day crafts, sharing memories, and raising a toast to the troops as we remembered the courage and sacrifice of those who fought for our freedom. 🕯️

Paying our respects 💜🕯️

As our VE Day celebrations come to a close, we held a 2 minutes silence and lit some candles in order to pay our respects and remember those who lost their lives in World War 2.

1939-1945…"Neither the long years, nor the dangers, nor the fierce attacks of the enemy, have in any way weakened the unbending resolve of the British nation”

VE Day Party 🇬🇧🎉🎈

VE Day marks an incredible day in history, the end of World War 2. So, we’ve spent the week reflecting, reminiscing and celebrating the brave men and women who fought for our freedom.

We welcomed the amazing Beth from Jolly Old Time Entertainment who packed up our troubles in her old kit bag and sung us through our celebrations! 🎶

We then of course finished off with a buffet from our fantastic kitchen team! Just look at that Victoria Sponge 😋🎂

A huge thank you to our lovely colleague Emma, who kindly built a new raised planter using her own materials and also spent her own time repainting some of our outdoor furniture. 🌸☀️

All of this was done for our residents and staff to enjoy, and the results look absolutely amazing. Your kindness, hard work, and thoughtfulness are so appreciated by us all. 💙🩷🫶🌟👏

Spending time with our residents means the world to us all, especially when we can enjoy this beautiful weather together. ☀️💐

We’re so lucky to have such lovely surroundings and beautiful places close to our care home, giving our residents the chance to enjoy fresh air, scenic views, and peaceful walks.

Whether it’s sharing conversations, laughter, or simply relaxing outdoors, these special moments create wonderful memories for everyone. 🫶🥰

As part of our Staff Appreciation Week (27th April – 3rd May), we’ve loved treating our wonderful staff to biscuits, cakes, and thoughtful gifts as a small token of our gratitude for everything they do each day for our lovely residents.

Their kindness, dedication, and hard work never go unnoticed, and we are incredibly thankful to have such a caring team. 💐🫶🥰

April Round-up🌟💜

As April comes to a close, we’re taking a look back over the amazing activities we’ve done this month!

We’ve been on trips, celebrated St George’s Day, welcomed the return of Bike Belles, sang, danced, played games, baked, built bug hotels, exercised, played bingo, crafted, and much much more! 🥰

We’re looking forward to seeing what May has in store for us here at The Chocolate Works🤗💜

Choccy Works Clothes Shop👗💜

Last week we had the amazing opportunity to set up a Clothes shop at The Chocolate Works with the help of Sam and Balvinder from B&K Clothing Company.

They brought us a variety of high-quality clothing for both our gents and ladies to try on and purchase. Everyone had great fun trying on new clothes and love their new outfits🥰

Thank you Sam and Balvinder, we can’t wait to have you back! And a big thank you to all of the relatives that came along and supported their loved ones with this!💜
