Beautiful outside spaces

The teams at Bluebell and Primrose House in Westward Ho! have been busy creating lovely outside seating areas for their residents. The patio area between the two homes have been transformed! An enclosed gazebo and a summer house will enable the residents to enjoy the sea air without the sea breeze!

On your Bike!

On Sunday 5th September 2021, Cornwall will host the Tour of Britain, the UK’s premier road cycling event.  The Grand Depart will see riders travel 170 kilometres through the Cornish countryside, starting in Penzance and ending in Bodmin. How excited will the riders be to see this on the finish line! Beautifully decorated by the lovely residents of St Petrocs.

Staff and residents get ready for a Super Trouper ABBA afternoon. I cannot think of a better way to spend a Friday. Have fun all!!

G&T Afternoon!

When the residents at Bluebell House in Westward Ho! were asked what they really fancied doing one sunny afternoon, they voted overwhelmingly to have a Gin & Tonic in the garden. And that’s exactly what they did!

A lovely gesture!

St Petrocs in Bodmin has just taken delivery of some beautiful troughs of flowers, put together by a very thoughtful relative, to add a splash of colour to the visitor pods. Thank you – these lovely gestures mean so much.

Happy 101st!

This week we celebrated Pauline Coverley’s 101st birthday.It was her family’s wishes that we celebrated it this way. They all had a wonderful time. She had a piano cake as when she is bright enough to get out of bed she likes to sit at our piano and tinkle the ivories. Happy 101st! Pauline!
