We had a truly fantastic morning with the Hedgehogs today.
It was lovely to see the smiles on everyone’s faces, and it’s clear that both the children and the residents gain so much from these special times.
The children brought along their mid-morning snacks to enjoy with us, and they sang some nursery rhymes, before heading back to nursery.

Thank you for such a lovely visit, Hedgehogs, we hope you all have a wonderful half term and we look forward to seeing you soon 😊

This week, Heatherdale stepped back in time to the iconic decade of the 1960s! Flower power and flared trousers ruled the day as the home was transformed into a psychedelic, cosmic explosion of colour, complete with shimmering disco balls and vibrant balloons. 🌸✨

Residents fully embraced the spirit of the era, taking part in a fun and fast-paced 60s quiz that sparked plenty of laughter and brought back cherished memories from their younger years.
All that reminiscing worked up an appetite, just in time to enjoy a delicious traditional 1960s-inspired lunch. The menu was a real treat, featuring classic favourites such as hearty meatloaf followed by the ever-popular Black Forest gateau.

The afternoon continued on a high note with fantastic live entertainment from the wonderful Frankie Dean, who had everyone tapping their toes and singing along to the super sounds of the 60s. 🎶

It was truly a wonderful day filled with fun, music, laughter, and memory-making.
The question is… where will we travel to next on our journey through time? 😊
