Please join us in celebrating our newest resident, Mary, and her truly wonderful age of 103 💖
Mary is never without her lipstick, her hair perfectly done, gorgeous clothes and accessories, and of course a spritz of Miss Dior perfume. Such a glamorous lady! We absolutely adore her fantastic personality and brilliant sense of humour, Mary is fitting in beautifully and making lots of new friends.
Here is Mary after being thoroughly beautified, sporting a gorgeous set of gel nails and a blow-dry to rival Marilyn Monroe herself. Pure elegance, timeless style, and an absolute joy to be around!

🎂 Such a special day celebrating James’s birthday with his lovely Mum, Betty, at the home 🎈 �James visits Betty every week with his carer, and it’s something he always looks forward to, so it was only right to celebrate his birthday together. A beautiful homemade cake made by the lovely Annabel, a dreamy Victoria sponge 🍰 it went down a treat! It was a perfect chance for everyone to spend quality time together and make James’s birthday extra memorable 🎂

📱 DIGITAL DISCOVERIES 💻 with Aileen, Ann & Pamela
Digital Discoveries is all about gently introducing and supporting seniors to engage with technology in a fun, relaxed, and meaningful way. During these sessions, we explore iPads, mobile and telephone phones, and our Tiny Tablet, helping residents learn how to take photos, make video calls, play simple games, listen to music, and discover apps that bring joy and connection into their everyday lives.
Introducing seniors to technology has so many positive benefits. It helps reduce feelings of isolation by making it easier to stay in touch with family and friends, boosts confidence as new skills are learned, and stimulates the mind through problem-solving and creativity. Most importantly, it reminds our seniors that learning doesn’t stop and that technology can be a source of fun, laughter, and independence.
Digital Discoveries isn’t about “keeping up with the times”; it’s about opening doors to connection, memories, and moments of joy. Seeing the smiles, the pride, and the excitement when something new clicks makes it all worthwhile, and we’re so excited to continue exploring the digital world together. 💻

Philip currently has 6.4 million views on the fabulous Dutchy Darlings Instagram page and is clearly a fan favourite, with thousands of comments and reposts.
