This month has been all about cherishing our friends and loved ones and sharing gratitude.

For Pat, this year it marked a special beginning, A move to The Manor, A friendship made true. Meeting Ruth, now a dear friend, Has made this year brighter through and through!

Cecile remembers a year filled with joy, A birthday made special in every way. With schoolchildren singing and smiles all around, A moment she treasures to this day.

Myrtle holds close a precious memory, Her great-granddaughter visiting at Christmas time. For the
year ahead, her wish is simple and true – To have her husband back, missed everyday, always in mind.

Greta knows she made the right decision, Coming here was one of the best things she’s done! Crafts with Anne brings her so much joy, Keeley’s porridge is second to none! And meeting a Lucy has added laughter – They’ve shared many happy moments and fun!

Christmas snacks and drinks have begun here at The Manor! We’ve even started with the Christmas games! Mo and Sheila had great fun playing a festive game with Jacob, who bravely wore the inflatable reindeer antlers while they tried to toss the hoops over them! Our lovely residents have also enjoyed a lovely festive outing to the garden centre. We wrapped up warm, hopped on our bus, and spent the morning exploring the displays. Here we are soaking up the Christmas magic. So stay tuned for what is to come in December!!!

 

An afternoon pumpkin picking at Orway Porch Farm!
At a time in life when firsts are few and far between, we were thrilled to share a brand new experience with our residents. Their very first pumpkin picking trip! A beautiful autumn day with plenty of pumpkins to choose from! Memories made and smiles all around. But who actually knew pumpkins came in so many shapes, sizes and colour!? Our residents were amazed at the variety on offer – surprises around every corner! 

Nothing is stopping us from getting a head start on the Halloween fun! Some might say it’s a bit early, but we say it’s never too soon to have a spook-tacular time! From crafty creations to spooky decorations popping up around The Manor, it’s clear we’re ready for a fang-tastic October time.



Michael has enjoyed another trip home to visit Wendy and he was delighted to show us his Land Rover.
