Lest we forget 🕊️

Remembrance Day - A time for community and reflection. Here at Oaklands we have spent the last few days remembering and honouring those who served and sacrificed for our freedom. We held a coffee morning on Remembrance Sunday and have been busy working on meaningful crafts and reminiscence. 💜

Getting ready for Remembrance Day 🌹

We have been getting crafty, making tissue paper poppies ready for Remembrance Day. This is a lovely simple but effective craft, and these pretty flowers bring a pop of colour into the home, as we prepare ourselves for this time of remembrance 💜

Autumn at Oaklands 🍁🌳

The weathers turning and there’s a chill in the air but there is still lots of beauty in the garden!

If you are coming to the home, feel free to dress up warm and come and enjoy all the lovely colours and senses in the garden. 🍂

We’ve been going pumpkin mad! 🎃

Leading up to Halloween the residents got up to all sorts of crafty fun, instead of carving out their designs we got out the paints again and painted them instead 😊

Wear it pink!! 💗🌸

What a fantastic day raising money for Breast Cancer Awareness and Research! We enjoyed a community coffee morning followed by an afternoon of fun challenges and games.

This was one of those special days that shows what the magic of coming together can do. It was so lovely to have all the staff taking part and supporting each other in making this day so fabulously pink! A big thank you to everyone who got involved and donated 🤗✨
