Mother’s Day

Mother’s day is such a special day in all our calendars, and perhaps a little harder to celebrate this year as we are so used to big family gatherings in all of our homes. But we did manage a few quiet visits from family, with plenty of colourful spring flowers and delicious cakes.Mother's day rose Mother's day

Hidden talents!

One of the positive things about this year is discovering hidden talents. With lockdown and visitors restrictions we have sadly been unable to allow our usual hairdressers into the homes. It’s amazing how many of our care team can cut hair! It seems that Dhimo, our Actitives Coordinator at Chollaott House in Tavistock is really rather good at it!

Happy St David’s Day

Who else is enjoying some Welsh cakes on St David’s Day??

Getting creative with fridge magnets

I just love these fridge magnets made by the talented residents of Dove Tree House in Exeter!

Little Act of Kindness

Unexpected deliveries like these have such a positive effect on us all! The staff and residents at St Petrocs were delighted to receive these beautiful spring flower from Churchtown Farm on the Isles of Scilly, with the words:

‘To all the staff

From Bodmin Light and Life Church.’

Thank you so much for this Act of Kindness.
