We had such a fantastic time at the silent disco with Music for Memories 🎧🎶

Dancing together, sharing laughs, and hearing everyone’s favourite songs through the headphones was truly special. Moments like these show just how powerful music can be — bringing back memories, creating joy, and connecting people in a unique way 😊💛

A huge thank you to Music for Memories for organising it. We can’t wait for the next one! 👏✨

We were delighted to join our friends at Rodley House for a truly magical festive afternoon ✨🦌

When our residents shared their December wishlists, a few mentioned seeing the reindeer in Lapland. While the trip itself wasn’t possible, we were thrilled to bring the reindeer to us instead!

Everyone enjoyed a wonderful afternoon filled with festive cheer, including reindeer visits, hot chocolate, mulled wine and mince pies - a real seasonal treat 🎄☕️ We were also joined by children from the local primary school and nursery, who visited Santa’s grotto to enjoy chocolate and candy canes. ❤️

The atmosphere was truly festive and the experience brought so much joy to residents, visitors and staff alike. It’s one that’s still being talked about every day — a wishlist moment we’ll remember for a long time to come 😊

What a wonderful morning at our Christmas Fair. We had the best time celebrating the festive season with beautiful Christmas craft stalls created by our talented residents and staff, a fantastic raffle, craft decorating, plenty of mince pies and turkey rolls, and of course a visit from our very own Santa in his grotto. The morning was made even more special with a touching performance from the Berryhill Band.

A massive thank you to all the local shops for their generous donations, such an amazing community spirit. It was lovely welcoming families and friends to join in the festivities. Thank you to everyone who came and made the day magical. 🎄

National Picnic Month at The Coombs!
We made the most of the sunshine with a relaxing riverside picnic on the Lydbrook riverbank. Surrounded by peaceful wildlife, stunning views, and canoeists drifting by - it was the perfect way to soak up the summer!

It did start to get a little grey later in the day, but that didn’t stop anyone from enjoying the magnificent view and great company 🌿☁️

We had a great time recently celebrating World Kebab Day with our residents, making vibrant and delicious fruit kebabs! 🍓🍍🍇

Not your typical kebab, but a perfect healthy twist! These refreshing and hydrating fruit kebabs were the perfect treat to keep us cool in the warm weather. A fun activity that brought smiles all around! 😄

It’s always a joy to get creative and enjoy healthy treats with our residents. Can’t wait for the next themed celebration! 🎉
