Really great care is all about developing good relationships. The teams in our homes are not only chosen for their proffessionalism but also their understanding and compassion. Through this they create strong and lasting freindships with both you and your family. This is one of the key reasons why our homes are lovely places to live - they feel like communities where the whole family is respected and looked after.

🎶 Go, Go, Greased Lightning...

It was party time at Redlands Acre Care Home as we turned back the clock to the 1950s for our Grease-themed celebration!

The home was buzzing with excitement as residents and team members dressed up as the T-Birds and Pink Ladies, donning leather jackets, pink boas, and heart-shaped shades — ready to rock around the clock! 🎸✨

From dancing and singing along to all the classic hits, to plenty of laughter and photo-worthy moments, the atmosphere was electric. It was wonderful to see so many smiles, laughter, and a few impressive dance moves filling the room!

These special themed days bring back such great memories and create new ones too — proof that fun and friendship never go out of style. 💖

Thank you to our amazing team for making the day so memorable and to our lovely residents for throwing themselves into the spirit — we think you all look absolutely fabulous!

Honouring Remembrance Day at Parton House ❤️🌺

Our residents have been busy in the kitchen this week, baking delicious poppy-shaped biscuits in honour of Remembrance Day.

From mixing the dough to decorating each biscuit with care, everyone got involved — and of course, we all agreed the best part was tasting the results! 🍪

It was a lovely way to come together, reflect, and remember those who have served and sacrificed.

Moments like these remind us that Remembrance isn’t only about looking back — it’s about sharing stories, creating together, and passing gratitude forward.

Remembrance Day...

Across our Homes, Remembrance Day holds deep significance. Several residents have family histories touched by war, and today we will listen as they share memories from the past.

We will hold a period of silence and make sure that we honour the sacrifice of people in the past. We hope that going forward we can all learn to live in a more peaceful and harmonious world.

🎆 Bonfire Night at Parton House...

We had a truly wonderful evening celebrating Bonfire Night with our very own fireworks display in the garden! ✨

From colourful bursts to Roman candles, our residents had the best seats in the house — safely watching all the excitement from the comfort and warmth of home.

Of course, no Bonfire Night would be complete without some traditional firework food — hot dogs and French fries were enjoyed by everyone! 🌭🍟

🎆 Bonfire Night Fun at Redlands Acre...

We had a wonderful time celebrating Bonfire Night last week! 💥

It was lovely watching the local fireworks light up the sky with all their sparks and bangs, but the real highlight of the evening was our very own bubble machine 🫧

It filled the room with a flurry of bubbles and plenty of laughter — bringing back so many happy childhood memories for everyone. ❤️

A big thank you to our team for creating such a joyful and safe celebration for all!

At Magnolia House, we pause today, on Remembrance Sunday to reflect:

“For those who gave their lives, so we could live ours.”

Our residents and team have come together to create thoughtful displays across the home—hand-crafted poppies, a beautiful remembrance wall, and tributes that honour not only the men and women who served, but also the animals who stood alongside them.

As we prepare for Remembrance Day on 11th November, we invite our community to join us in a moment of reflection and gratitude. Today, tomorrow, and always—we remember.

🎂👻 A week of celebrations at Bredon View...

We kicked things off with a warm and joyful 86th birthday—songs, smiles, and a very tasty cake shared with friends. Happy birthday to our wonderful resident! 💙

Then we turned up the fun for our Halloween party: spooky decorations, fancy-dress headbands and hats, party games, and plenty of treats (no tricks!). 🕸️🎃

Thank you to our amazing staff and families for helping make both events so special. Here are a few snapshots from a fabulous few days—enjoy! 📸✨

🎃 A Fang-tastic Halloween at Magnolia House...

We had a spook-tacular time from dawn till dusk, with residents and staff really getting into the spirit.

Our haunting highlights included:
• Hallo-win Bingo with prizes that were simply delicious
• “Dare to Dip” — brave souls reached into our slimy cauldron to pick-a-treat (icky, sticky and frightfully fun!)
• Cauldron toss games that were witch-perfect for friendly competition
• A monster mash-up of costumes—devilishly good hats, bewitching capes and plenty of eerie accessories
• Trick-or-treat trays loaded with boo-licious bakes and fang-fresh refreshments

There were cackles, chuckles and a few playful shrieks—no tricks here. Huge thanks to our team for brewing up an event that was wickedly well-organised and inclusive for everyone.

🎃 Halloween at Redlands...

What a spook-tacular day! Our lounge was filled with laughter, costumes and plenty of tasty treats.

Residents enjoyed a Halloween tea with warming soup, sandwiches and web-topped fairy cakes, while our team got into the spirit with some fang-tastic outfits that raised lots of smiles.

Thank you to everyone who joined in and made it a wonderful event.

🍪 Baking Day at Parton House...

We’ve been busy turning simple ingredients into freshly baked biscuits—and a lot of smiles! Residents took part in every step: measuring, mixing, shaping and tasting. With gloves on and bowls at the ready, there was brilliant teamwork and plenty of chat as memories of favourite family recipes came flooding back.

Why we love baking together:
It’s sensory and soothing—the feel of dough, the sound of mixing, and the smell of biscuits in the oven.
Great for fine motor skills and confidence as everyone sees (and tastes!) the results of their efforts.
A lovely way to socialise over a cuppa while the trays cool.

The verdict? Two delicious plates of biscuits—some buttery, some spiced—and not many left by the end of the afternoon!

🏐 Seated Ball Games...

This week our wellbeing team facilitated seated ball games in the lounge—an inclusive activity designed for all abilities.

Why we use it:
Physical: encourages gentle upper-body movement, supports joint mobility and circulation, and helps maintain coordination.

Cognitive: promotes attention, reaction time and decision-making through simple rules and turn-taking.

Social & Emotional: offers shared enjoyment, confidence building and positive connection between residents and staff.

Activities are risk-assessed and adapted to each resident, with soft equipment and clear, supported instructions. Most importantly, with plenty of smiles.

🎃 Happy Halloween from Cedar Trust Care Homes! 👻

Our residents are enjoying the decorations and seasonal fun, and we’d love your help in keeping the evening kind and considerate for everyone.

If you’re heading out trick-or-treating tonight, please keep our older and more vulnerable neighbours in mind:

🕯️ Visit homes with a lit pumpkin or a sign welcoming trick-or-treaters.
🚪 Skip knocking at houses that are dark or undecorated.
🍬 Take one or two treats so there’s enough to share—little acts of kindness go a long way.
🚶 Stay safe and visible: stick together, use pavements and cross carefully.
🐾 Keep noise low near care homes and be mindful of pets and people who may be startled.

Wishing you a fun, thoughtful and spook-tacular evening! 🧡
