PANCAKE FLIPPING FUN
Lots of smiles (and a few impressive flipping skills!) as residents and staff came together to enjoy delicious pancakes. The laughter in the room said it all β€” such a simple activity, but so much joy shared together.

Celebrating Chinese New Year

We also celebrated Chinese New Year by drawing colourful dragons, sharing fortune cookies, and learning about traditions. It was a lovely opportunity for residents and staff to celebrate culture, creativity, and togetherness.

Moments like these remind us how special our Rowan Park community truly is πŸ–€πŸ’›

πŸ’– Love is in the Air! πŸ’–

Happy Valentine’s Day to all our wonderful residents, dedicated staff, supportive families, and dear friends! ❀️

Today we celebrate love in all its beautiful forms - friendship, kindness, compassion, laughter, and the special bonds we share every single day here in our home.

Valentine’s Day is a lovely reminder that love doesn’t just live in grand gestures β€” it lives in warm smiles, helping hands, shared stories, cups of tea together, and the caring moments that make our home so special.

We are so grateful for the love and community that surrounds us. Our residents bring joy and wisdom, our staff bring dedication and heart, and our families and friends bring unwavering support. Together, we create a place filled with warmth, comfort, and belonging.

Wishing you all a day filled with happiness, sweet treats, and plenty of love!

With love from all of us πŸ–€πŸ’›

The Olympic spirit reached Rowan Park Care Home today as we celebrated the Winter Olympics 2026 with our very own indoor games event! β„οΈπŸ…

Our residents took part in a variety of fun, gentle indoor activities, and the competitive streak definitely came out β€” we’re convinced there were a few hidden athletes in the room today! πŸ˜„πŸ’ͺ

There was plenty of team spirit as our residents joined in at their own pace. It was wonderful to see such determination, focus, and good humour all around. Events like this show that you’re never too old to enjoy a little friendly competition!

A huge well done to all our amazing participants β€” gold medals all round at Rowan Park today! πŸ₯‡βœ¨

Our residents at Rowan Park had a truly wonderful time getting creative with some beautiful flower arranging. πŸŒΌπŸ’

The room was filled with colour, laughter, and the most amazing floral scents as everyone designed their own stunning arrangements. It was such a joy to see the smiles, the concentration, and the pride in what they created β€” each display as unique as the person who made it.

Activities like this are about so much more than flowers. Flower arranging helps support wellbeing, creativity, and fine motor skills, while also encouraging social interaction, conversation, and happy memories. Most of all, it gave everyone a chance to relax, express themselves, and simply enjoy the moment together. πŸ–€πŸ’›

Today we had the absolute joy of a visit from our lovely friends at Twinnies Petting Farm 🐴🐢

Our residents at Rowan Park were treated to some very special guests β€” including the gentlest donkeys and the sweetest little puppy, and there were smiles all around from start to finish πŸ–€πŸ’›

Animal visits like these are so much more than just a nice afternoon. Time with animals can help to:
✨ Lift mood and reduce stress
✨ Encourage conversation and social interaction
✨ Bring back happy memories
✨ Provide comfort and companionship
✨ Create a wonderful sense of calm

It was beautiful to see how relaxed, engaged, and genuinely happy everyone was. There were cuddles, laughter, and lots of chatting β€” the animals definitely stole the show! πŸ₯°

A huge thank you to Twinnies for bringing such warmth and happiness into our home today. We can’t wait to welcome you back again soon!

This week, we celebrated 2 years since the opening of Rowan Park Care Home πŸ’›πŸ–€πŸ’›πŸ–€
It was a truly touching moment to see our residents, families, and colleagues come together, sharing smiles, laughter, and memories. These past two years have been filled with compassion, dedication, and love, and none of it would have been possible without the incredible support and trust from everyone around us. We are so grateful for every person who has been part of our journey, and we look forward to creating many more precious moments together.πŸ’›πŸ–€πŸ’›πŸ–€

There was a wonderful smell filling the air at Rowan Park Care Home during our bread making session, and it brought so many smiles along with it.

Baking is a powerful sensory activity. The feel of the dough, the familiar smells of flour and yeast, and the warmth of freshly baked bread can spark memories, emotions, and meaningful conversations. These sensory experiences often reach parts of the memory that words alone cannot.

Residents took real pride in making something themselves, from mixing and kneading to seeing the finished loaf. This sense of purpose and achievement helps build confidence, self-esteem, and wellbeing. Activities like this also support fine motor skills, concentration, and coordination in a gentle, enjoyable way.

Most of all, it was about fun, enjoyment, and shared moments together. Sitting around the table, working side by side, and celebrating the finished bread created connection, laughter, and a lovely sense of togetherness.

Simple moments like these make a big difference, turning everyday activities into meaningful experiences that support dignity, independence, and joy.

This week we enjoyed a calming aqua painting session on Nettlebridge with our residents, and it was truly special to see the positive impact it had.

Aqua painting is a gentle, accessible activity that supports people living with dementia in so many ways. The flowing water and soft colours encourage relaxation, reduce anxiety, and provide a soothing sensory experience. Residents can take part freely without pressure, which helps build confidence and a sense of achievement.

Creative activities like this also support fine motor skills, hand–eye coordination, and concentration. Just as importantly, they open opportunities for self-expression when words may be difficult, helping residents share emotions, memories, and feelings in a meaningful way.

Spending time painting together on Nettlebridge also encourages social connection, conversation, and moments of joy. These shared experiences can lift mood, promote wellbeing, and create a strong sense of belonging.
