On our icecream days, Analyn sets up a trolley which she takes around the facility delivering ice cream to the residents, all the while playing the cheery Mr. Whippy jingle. Analyn's ice cream day walks are a favourite amongst our residents, and the excitement starts building as soon as they see them on the planner. When the familiar music begins playing in the background, smiles appear instantly.

We recently enjoyed a fun trip to the aviation museum. This brought back a lot of memories for some of our residents, who said that being there made them feel like a child again. Many residents shared stories of people they knew who had worked there or had even flown some of the planes. They enjoyed talking about their history, the aircraft, and the memories that came to the surface during their visit.

We enjoyed our first game of putt putt golf! It took plenty of attempts, and a whole lot of consideration to hit the small ball, trying to aim it into the hole. We can't wait for our next game!

Christmas is a little different for each of us. It can be a time of joy and celebration – but it can also be a season that feels more heavy, quiet or complicated. However this Christmas finds you, we send warmth your way. May you experience moments of peace and comfort. Wishing you a very happy Christmas.

We were lucky enough to have the wonderful line dancing ladies come to entertain us yesterday morning at Leighton House. They were dressed up in their Christmas themed outfits including Santa hats and reindeer headbands.

Thank you ladies for your amazing dancing skills and for
entertaining our residents.
