Hi everyone! My name’s Matt and I’m really excited to introduce myself as your new Home Manager at Priory Court, starting on Monday 9th February.

I’m looking forward to getting to know as many of you as possible as my journey begins here. I’ve worked in care for the past 14 years, with just over 10 of those in management roles across a range of dementia and nursing care settings.

I’m excited to share my experience and work alongside such a dedicated team, supporting and building on the fantastic standard of care that I know Priory Court already provides. I can’t wait to meet you all and get started. My door is always open, so please feel free to say hello or have a chat anytime.

We’re absolutely thrilled to share that Mack Entertainment has been awarded a National Lottery grant to bring something truly special into care homes — and we’ve been chosen to be part of it! National Lottery Community Fund💛

This means five fun-filled choir rehearsals, bringing residents and willing staff together to sing, laugh, and make memories — all leading up to a fantastic final performance 🎤✨
No experience needed, just a love of music and a willingness to have fun!

We’ll be supported every step of the way by the fabulous Mindi from Mack Entertainment, who’ll be helping us find our voices and enjoy all the amazing benefits singing brings — from boosting mood and confidence to building connection and joy 💫

📸 Keep an eye out for photos and progress updates along the way, and of course… invitations to our final show, which will be recorded so everyone can enjoy it!

Let the music begin! 🎶💃🕺

Our residents love to do craft activities and always waiting to see what is next on the planner for them to do.

Today we have said a very sad goodbye to our wonderful manager Rommel. To finish the week of goodbyes we had a sing along concert with Rommel being the star entertainer with residents and staff joining in. Residents had made cards with a heart picture from every resident in them along with gifts. Rommel you will be missed so much and we wish you well in your future job.

Today we gathered as a team to say a heartfelt farewell to our dedicated manager, Rommel, who will be leaving Priory Court on Friday 💙

He was celebrated with thoughtful gifts, a card, delicious food for everyone, and a truly magnificent cake made by our talented chef, Jerome 🎂👏 There were plenty of hugs, a few tears, and lots of love shared as we reflected on the impact Rommel has had on us all.

We wish you the very best of luck in your new job, Rommel — you’ll be greatly missed, but never forgotten. 🌟🤍

This week we have started to make our valentines display boards, hearts coloured in, covered in tissue paper, glitter and buttons. Art and crafts is a great activity were the residents get to chat whilst busy making things and everything they make is put on show around the home. ❤️🩷💖 Keep a look for them around the home.
