Elf Day Fun for the Alzheimer’s Society! ✨🧝‍♀️

Our elves at Walmer Care-Centre and Alexander House were up to festive mischief today — decorating, playing games, hosting quizzes, and filling the homes with laughter and Christmas cheer! 🎄😆

All the fun was for a wonderful cause, helping raise awareness and support for the Alzheimer’s Society. Together, our teams and residents raised to help fund vital dementia care and research. 💙

A huge thank-you to our cheerful elves (and even Elf & Safety!) for making the day unforgettable. 🎅✨

One of our lovely residents, aged 101, recently shared that she had never been arrested — but would love to experience a ride in a police car! 🚓💙

With the amazing support of our local police team, we made her wish come true!
She was absolutely thrilled as the officers arrived to take her for her very first police car ride, sirens and all! 😄

It was a moment filled with laughter, excitement, and a beautiful reminder that you’re never too old to make new memories. 💖

A huge thank you to our local police for helping make this unforgettable experience possible! 👏👮‍♀️
