Who doesn't like a game of dominoes,...well Gemma doesn't as she lost not once but three times! She's sure Margaret was cheating?

This week in the lead up to Easter, we have been busy crafting and painting.
We decorated our own eggs, had an Easter quiz, made an Easter garden display together for the Church competition entry, Pastor Kim paid a visit and held an early Easter service and we played some fun themed games.

Today at Lakeview, there was a real sense of togetherness as residents and staff came together to celebrate a very special person 💙
We want to wish our wonderful Manager, Carole, the very best of luck as she begins an exciting new chapter at our sister home, Kenwyn. While we’ll certainly miss seeing her at Lakeview every day, we are so proud that she’ll be sharing her expertise, wisdom, and kindness with another team within South West Care Homes.
Carole, thank you for everything you’ve done – your leadership, compassion, and dedication have made a lasting impact on us all. This isn’t goodbye, just a new beginning, and we know you’ll be amazing in your new role 🌟
With love and best wishes from all your Lakeview family 💐

Today for lunch was Beef stew and our ladies decided some nice fresh baked bread would be lovely alongside it, so we gathered the ingredients, washed our hands and got busy mixing and kneading dough. Baking is great for cognitive stimulation, following recipes and measuring, it also boosts sensory triggers, self esteem and most importantly maintains a sense of independence.

We had fun with some 'Dancercise', we chose some up beat music we recognised and got to working out in our chairs, it definitely picked up pace and got the blood pumping, but it was lots of fun.

Today we played a variety of card games and also learnt some new ones together.
Higher or Lower, Chase the ace and a new found favourite of 'Go fish'.
Boosting cognitive function, strategic thinking, memory and social interaction.
playing simple games together reduces any stress/anxiety and increases self esteem and helps with dexterity too.
We had everyone involved smiling, and some friendly competitiveness.

We had the pleasure of enjoying wildlife day in the sunshine today, collecting leaves and hunting for wildlife, wildflowers and insects, we recognised different tree leaves, we searched our bug hotel to see what insects have made a home, spotted many different birds and heard various nature sounds.
We also had to think hard on completing many different life cycles of plants and wildlife from seeds-trees and eggs/larve- butterfly’s and shared interesting facts and memories of our own wildlife experiences.

A beautiful and emotional moment between Dave and Anne yesterday as Dave decided he’d help deliver the post to our residents, Anne had a lovely postcard from her friends and was very excited & thankful to Dave, they then read the card out together and laughed and even shared a little tear of happiness and gratitude.
