🌿🌤️ St Brigid’s Day greetings from The Fern Dean 🌤️🌿

St Brigid’s Day, celebrated each year on 1st February, marks a meaningful turning point in the Irish year, when winter begins to loosen its grip and the first signs of spring appear. St Brigid has long been associated with light, protection, generosity and care for others, values that have been passed down through Irish homes and communities for centuries.💛

The day is traditionally linked to Imbolc, an ancient celebration of renewal and new beginnings. Customs such as weaving St Brigid’s crosses from rushes and welcoming light into the home were ways of expressing hope for health, safety and wellbeing in the year ahead.💛

At The Fern Dean, we are proud to honour these traditions and the sense of continuity they bring. We wish our residents, families and wider community a peaceful St Brigid’s Day and a gentle start to spring.🙏

✨This week at The Fern Dean, we had the pleasure of welcoming a violinist into our home, and it was a really lovely experience for everyone 🎻

The music filled the room and created a calm, warm atmosphere, with many residents stopping to listen, chat about familiar tunes, and enjoy the moment together. It was simple, genuine, and very special.💛

A big thank you to the violinist for taking the time to play for our residents, and to our staff for organising and supporting the session. Most importantly, thank you to our residents for getting involved and making it such an enjoyable afternoon.👏

🌟 Throwback Thursday – A Moment We’re Still Proud Of 🌟

As part of , we’re looking back on a very special moment for The Fern Dean Blackrock, being officially named a Great Place to Work 🙏

This recognition meant so much to us because it reflected the everyday moments that make our community what it is: the dedication and compassion of our team, the trust of our residents, and the ongoing support of families.✨

For us, being named a Great Place to Work is more than an award, it’s reassurance that the values we strive to live by every day are being felt by those who matter most. It tells us that our focus on respect, teamwork, and genuine care is making a real difference, and it motivates us to keep raising the bar for our staff, residents, and families as we continue to grow and learn together.✨

✨ Today we celebrate Nollaig na mBan, or “Women’s Christmas,” a cherished Irish tradition observed on January 6th, also known as Little Christmas or Epiphany. Traditionally, it’s a day for women to come together, enjoy each other’s company, and mark the end of the Christmas season.✨

Nollaig na mBan has deep roots in Irish culture, honoring women, friendship, and community. It’s a day of connection, reflection, and celebrating the women who bring warmth and spirit to families and communities. 🌸✨
