Happy Valentine’s Day with much love from all of us at Sandstone Brook ❤️

A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful residents, families, friends, dedicated staff, and the wider local community for your continued love and support throughout the year. We truly appreciate each and every one of you.

Love is definitely in the air today, shining through in so many thoughtful ways. Beautiful red roses and Valentine’s cards were delivered to residents, our talented Chef baked delicious pretty pink Valentine’s cupcakes, and our friend Andy from Myley Transport Services kindly brought a special gift for Resident, Tudor — knowing his favourite films and characters are from the Batman Series, Tudor was very moved and really felt the love, Thank you Andy 🦇

It’s moments like these that make our community so special. Wishing everyone a day filled with love, kindness, and happiness.

Olivia Schofield’s performance at Sandstone Brook was truly captivating. With a wonderful setlist filled with many of our favourite tunes, her stunning vocals resonated beautifully throughout the home. The Café Bar was buzzing with a fantastic turnout, and we were absolutely delighted to enjoy a few well-deserved encores.
We are already looking forward to Olivia’s next visit!

The amazingly talented, Jeep Johnson delivered a wonderful set of timeless Vintage USA-yodelling blues music from the 1920’s - 1940s. Jeep’s well-loved selection of tunes created a fantastic afternoon of singing and dancing together. Jeep's talented performance feels like pure nostalgia—a real gift for lovers of slow, soulful blues.

A huge thank you to Nicola from Creative Minds, Whitchurch, Shropshire, for a sensational creative workshop at Sandstone Brook.

Residents had a wonderful afternoon and absolutely loved the direction and use of colour, which brought out the very best in everyone’s abilities.

We are passionate animal lovers here at Sandstone Brook. Residents, Staff, families, and our friends are all truly connected by a shared love for animals, which is why we warmly welcome visiting pets and regularly arrange animal visits both in and out of the home. If you love animals as much as us, please follow our page

We are delighted to be engaged with pet therapy dogs and cuddly small animals such as guinea pigs, and we also frequently welcome visits from more exotic pets. In addition, we arrange day trips so residents can experience and enjoy larger species, at Zoos & Wildlife parks.

Residents and Staff visited 'Cotebrook Shire Horse Centre' https://cotebrookshirehorses.co.uk/ to see the beautiful Shire horses and whilst we were there, were treated to a wonderful surprise to see the wildlife nature trail. Along the walk, we spotted a variety of wildlife, including otters! which everyone absolutely loved. We finished our trip at the Lakeside Café, where we enjoyed a relaxing fireside stop to recharge before heading home.

A Burns Supper Celebration at Sandstone Brook

It was our absolute pleasure to host a Burns Supper this afternoon in honour of the Scottish tribute to Robert Burns. At Sandstone Brook, we served traditional tasters of haggis, neeps and tatties, accompanied by rich gravy or whisky sauce, and had so much fun

Many of our residents proudly share Scottish roots, making today’s celebration particularly meaningful. While a few guests were initially hesitant to try haggis, it wasn’t long before they were asking for more!

A Burns Supper is a cherished celebration of the life and poetry of Robert Burns, the famous Scottish poet who lived in the 1700s. Burns is the author of many beloved Scots poems, and suppers in his honour are held around the world each year on, or near, his birthday — January 25th, known as Burns Night.

It was a joyous afternoon filled with great music, food, laughter, and cultural pride — a fitting tribute to Scotland’s national bard, celebrations will no doubt continue across the weekend and at Sandstone Brook.

Today's celebrations fitted in nicely with a Resident's 98th Birthday who has Scottish roots, for an Afternoon 98th Birthday Tea party celebration, this was enjoyed by the family attending. The home presented the afternoon tea on Resident Lyn's own Douglas Tartan tablecloth!

We wanted to share some of the fun activities enjoyed so far this week, as well as give a flavour of the varied activities programme available throughout the month – all designed to encourage social interaction.

Residents have taken part in, or enjoyed watching, a range of activities including armchair exercises, musical entertainment, dancing, and games such as dominoes. Playing dominoes can be a fun and engaging activity for people of all ages, but it is particularly beneficial for older adults. It not only provides an opportunity to socialise and connect with others, but also offers physical and cognitive benefits that can support overall wellbeing.

Everyone is welcome to drop in at any time for a coffee, to view the home, or to join us at our weekly Community Café, held every Thursday from 11:00am to 12:30pm.

We celebrated National Bird Day at Sandstone Brook Care Home today. Observed each year on January 5th, this special day celebrates the beauty and importance of birds in our ecosystems and highlights the need for conservation.

Residents gathered at a very special vantage point within the Sandstone Brook property — our soon-to-open first-floor area. We were quickly thrilled to spot a kestrel perched in a nearby tree (we hope you can spot him in the photos!). We also enjoyed sightings of crows, pigeons, sparrows, and a robin.

To mark the occasion, residents dressed in faux fur and country-inspired clothing, adding to the charm of the day. We are also keeping a close watch on the nesting boxes placed high around the building and are looking forward to seeing any activity there in the coming weeks.

We feel extremely lucky to be surrounded by nature and appreciate being so close to The Sandstone Trail very much.
