We would like to invite all relatives and friends, past and present, to join us in a heartfelt gathering to commemorate the cherished residents we have sadly lost in 2025. Together, we will honour their lives, share memories, and find comfort in one another’s company. The memorial service will take place at 2pm on Thursday 4th December, and we would be grateful to have you with us as we celebrate the lives of those who will always remain in our hearts. 💛🧡

Yesterday some of our residents had some fun engaging in making and baking. We made some lovely meat pies and liquor so the residents could enjoy some "proper cockney" food as some of our residents come from the London boroughs originally. Traditional pie, mash and liquor!! It all looked and smelled great and the residents enjoyed their meals.

Yesterday we had a wonderful morning thanks to a visit from Mayflower Primary School. Our residents and the children shared a fabulous intergenerational session in which the children read books and chatted with the residents and then we all had fun playing ball and balloon games! Our residents loved spending time with the children and everyone had an enjoyable, fun morning. We look forward to the next visit!!!

Today has been a fish shopping kind of day! In our tank we now have Neon tetra, Guppies and Gourami fish, the residents all loved watching them explore their new home and find them so relaxing! Were all excited for some new arrivals in a few weeks once these have settled in 🐠🐟😍
