🎶 Choir 🎶

This afternoon we welcomed the Yorkshire Wold Community Choir.

We all loved their singing and even joined in with a bit of chair dancing and singing along!

They performed songs from lots of different eras, so there was something for everyone. Already looking forward to their return visit.

🌱 Planting Fun This Afternoon! 🌱

We had a wonderful visit from the caring crew at Crosshill today, who joined our residents for a busy and cheerful planting session on the second floor. The dining room was full of chatter and excitement as we got stuck into planting cabbages, cauliflowers, watermelons, leeks, sprouts and more!

We even tried a very important scientific experiment… 🤭
🌻 Will sunflowers grow from bird-seed sunflower kernels?
Stay tuned to find out!

Of course, no afternoon activity is complete without treats—pink biscuits were enjoyed by all, along with plenty of juice. 💕🥤

A brilliant afternoon all round!

🎱 Bingo 🎱🎱

On Tuesday, we opened our doors to the community and enjoyed a game (or four!) of bingo.

Cake was happily consumed, new friendships were made, and the tea and coffee flowed freely.

A perfect winter’s night activity shared together.

🎻 Violinist 🎻

We’ve had the most wonderful afternoon!

Louise, a talented local violinist, joined us and filled the room with the most delightful music. Her performance brought so much warmth and joy — a truly special experience.

Looking forward to her return performance.

🚌 Bus trip 🚌

Another brilliant bus trip today! 🚌

We visited the Art Gallery in Beverley, had a lovely light lunch in the onsite café, and took a quick look around the museum.

The exhibition by Ian Massey is utterly delightful — well worth a visit! 🎨✨

🐷 Guinea pigs 🐷

On Saturday we had a visit from Guinea Be Okay, and it was a huge hit!

There were plenty of cuddles to go around, and Savannah taught us lots of interesting facts about these very cute little animals.

It definitely got the conversation going… especially about which in-house animals might suit Driffield Manor best!

🌟 January GEM Award Presentation 🌟

It was an honour to present our January GEM Award to Sean, one of our senior carers. Sean was nominated by a colleague for his brilliant sense of humour, for always being there to support his team, and for being a true team player.

Jane, one of our lovely residents, had the honour of presenting Sean with his certificate and a small token of appreciation.

Well done, Sean, and thank you for everything you do for the residents of Driffield Manor 👏

😆🎵💫
