We had a wordsearch Wednesday today, we asked some of the people living with us if they wanted to do a word search as it was fun to do and gets the brain going.

The ones who wanted to take part were really happy to join in and was assisted to find the words in the grid and mark them. It was a lot of fun as when they were looking for the word, once they found it you could see the look of satisfaction on their face.

We had lots of smiles and laughter while we were trying to find them as sometimes it looks like the word is somewhere else and its not the word.

On Tuesday afternoon we had a Coca Cola float afternoon.

Those living with us were treated to a drink that they possibly had as a young child or adult.

It was either coca cola with vanilla or strawberry ice cream or lemonade with vanilla or strawberry ice cream. Everyone loved it, they were asking for seconds. It went down really well.

Think it might have to be a monthly thing as they are still talking about it.

We had a pet therapy session with our residents on Tuesday morning, she was a beautiful little dog called Lottie.

Those living with us really loved to see her and give her lots and lots of affection. She was so sweet and very loving with everyone. Some of the residents got the chance to give her a little treat.

It was such a lovely morning, the residents keep asking when she's coming again.

Today we have been doing splatter painting for More...Creativity.

We got a long box and put paper in the box and we had 5 colours of paint and they stood at the table, chose the colour they wanted and flicked the paint off of the paint brush to the paper.

They had fun doing it, one lady was using a lot of red, when questioned why she was using a lot of red she said it is red for danger then laughed.

There was lots of laughing!

Chocolate day was in full swing, we had a decorating session where residents worked with melted chocolate and decorated pancakes, as well as tasting different brands of chocolate and watching a video on how chocolate is formed. This was definitely a resident favourite as chocolate was involved.

We’re starting a wonderful project to make personal memory boxes for each of our residents – filled with items that spark joy and bring back cherished memories.

To make this happen, we need family members to bring in a box (shoebox size works perfectly!) that we can decorate and fill together.

Please bring your box in by 1st February so we can start creating these special keepsakes.

Thank you for helping us make something truly meaningful for your loved ones!
