Today January 8th after coming out of a week of snow we decided that we were going to try our hand at some up-cycling and make some suncatchers out of CDs, string and paint pens!

Though the sky has been grey today and the weather forecast warned of snow this afternoon it didn't stop us from making our own sunshine in the sun lounge!

Tuesday 30th of December, we had a history afternoon all about the Royal Mint.

Looking at example coins and medals, we learnt all about what the Royal Mint is and what exactly it does! This included learning about how the Royal Mint doesn't just make coins and medals for the UK but for all over the world as well!

Some of our example coins included discontinued coins like a Half-Crowne and we also had a bar of gold which was 200g and we googled how much that would cost and it was a whopping £11,000 (unfortunately it was fake, so we couldn't make a tidy profit...)

This Christmas eve was absolutely magic here at Oaklands for or Residents and Relatives Christmas party! Opening up with a visit and outstanding performance from Andy, and the all want along to classic hits like White Christmas, primary school classics like Jingle bells and even some contemporary hits like Coldplay "Christmas Light"! We also made sure that everyone lost the unofficial "get to Christmas without listening to Wham" game by making a sing along out of it!

From there we were visited by the Christmas dinosaur (a returning visitor here at Oaklands) and then went down to our newly refurbished dining room where we announced our raffle winners and ate our dinner along side some lovely mince pies and mulled wine!

We wish you all a merry Christmas and hope everyone who came today had a brilliant time, because we did!

Sunday 21st December was our Cheese and Biscuits afternoon and we had a cheese-tastic time!

With all sorts of cheese including Truffle Trove and Green Thunder cheddar, crackers and an assortment of fruit we had so much fun and wasted no time digging in to our prizes. Afternoon activities like this are important for maintaining a social and intellectually stimulating environment for our residents whilst allowing them to partake in activities they may have done with friends in their younger years.

This afternoon we got an extra special visit from Cheshire Mobile farm, being visited by Shaun, Freddy the sheep; Flopsy the french lop ear rabbit and George the naked guinea pig!!

First being greeted by Shaun and Freddy (who attempted to take matters into their own hooves at one point and move a residents walker to get more cuddles) all of our residents had a fantastic time getting to learn about their new fluffy friends especially the fact that the specific sheep breed can't be sheared for clothing wool but instead the kind used for carpets! After loving and cuddling the sheep, we were then introduced to Flopsy and George!

Amongst all this we had a visit from Kids Planet who came to wish us a merry Christmas and sang us some Christmas carols including Jingle Bells!

Flopsy at over 7 kilos arrived to us in her pram alongside George who drew initially confused reactions before quickly becoming a favourite once people gave him a stroke and discovered how soft and squidgy he truly was! Flopsy as well enjoyed plenty of scratches and pats from our residents and seemed to content to get some good affection and snuggles in her tray in before going home!!

We already have them booked in again for next year and we can't wait!!

This Wednesday we had a wonderful visit from our dear friends Brenda and Ned this morning!

We're no stranger to Brenda and Ned, and each visit from them is something to look forward to, and the anticipation alone of seeing our furry friend gets a massive smile on all our faces, not to mention when he's here in Oakland's with us and delivering big smiles and lovely kisses.

Therapy dogs and all of their applications are incredibly useful in homes such as ours, and we're so thankful to be able to have time with Ned and Brenda in general but especially because of this!

This morning was also just the start to our little animals funday today at Oakland's, as this afternoon we're also getting a visit from Cheshire Mobile farm!

More photos of our fun first Christmas light trail where residents got to meet Mrs Claus and got a hot drink and mince pies. There was so much fun and laughter had by all, what a success it was.

Though we also went in the morning, this afternoon's Christmas tree trip was our last one of the year and we made an absolute wonderful time of it!

With a circuit around the displays, looking for all twelve of the Christmas sheep hidden amongst the trees (our activities assistants favourite was Francis), a walk around the main body of the cathedral and finally ending up in the cafe for a cup of tea and cake it was wonderful and a brilliant way to explore one of Chester's most wonderful landmarks!

We can't wait to do it again and hope everyone had a wonderful time together!

Trips and activities like this are vital to keeping our residents connected with local community and culture and we're always happy to help facilitate it!

15th December sees our second and third Cathedral tree trip of the month!

The above pictures show our morning trip to Chester Cathedral, where our residents explored all the trees our local community have made for us to explore! Events and trips like this are important for maintaining community engagement and intergenerational community and we hope we can continue to do them for years to come!

Saturday 13th was our Christmas Light trail this year, and it was an absolutely amazing time!

Complete with beautiful lights, mince pies, and a visit and present from Mrs.Claus it was an absolutely marvelous afternoon and evening. Starting in the sun lounge our residents made their way through a wonderland of lights up to Mrs.Claus' grotto in the TV room where they enjoyed a chat with and received a handful of presents from the big man in reds wife!

It was a beautiful evening and we can only hope our residents and their relatives had as fun a time as we did and that you all come again next year!!

Wednesday 10th was a jam packed day for us at Oaklands, with lunch spent at Abbey Gate Collage where our residents got to enjoy singing, poetry, a festive lunch and even got a visit from Father Christmas himself.

Though we got lost on the way there (who decided to name two schools so similarly!?) we really enjoyed our time there and hope to see them again!

These kinds of trips are important to us and for our residents as it keeps our residents engaged with local culture and community and ensured that intergenerational community stays intact and helps develop and strengthen bonds between the youngest and oldest generations.
