All aboard the Latimer Cruise Liner!
Our first port of call was the stunning Hawaii, where our residents embraced the Aloha spirit! They had a fantastic time learning the art of hula dancing while sipping refreshing coconut cocktails and enjoying delicious tropical fruit platters.
A splash of creativity at Latimer Court!
What an afternoon!
Anna, Michael maintaining the Love of Gardening
Anna loves being out in the garden and, upon joining our community, wished to add more plants, vegetables, and herbs to the grounds.
Whenever she is able, Anna heads out into the garden with the dedicated support of her carer, Michael, who visits twice a week to provide extra assistance.
Thanks to the recent hot weather, the strawberries, tomatoes, and sunflowers have absolutely flourished! Anna and the team members have already been sampling the glorious, fresh strawberries and tomatoes.
Spending time outside brings immense benefits for Anna. Furthermore, her fellow residents have thoroughly enjoyed seeing the cheerful sunflowers and vibrant passion flowers. These beautiful additions have sparked lovely conversations as residents tour the garden, truly brightening everyone’s day.
Celebrating an incredible milestone
Trio Birthday Celebrations
August is here and we have our first three birthdays of the month, and what wonderful celebrations they have been!
Birthdays are so much more than just another day, they are an opportunity to celebrate each resident, their life, and the memories they have created.
Here at the home we ensure every resident receives their very own personalised birthday cake, making their day special and as unique and meaningful as they are.
Please enjoy the photos below, that have captured the smiles, laughter and joy making every birthday a truly memorable occasion.
Cowboy Day Celebrations
What a fantastic afternoon we had recently at the home as we celebrated Cowboy Day!
Steve Carmel entertained us all with a fantastic selection of music that had everyone singing along, clapping, and enjoying every moment.
The atmosphere was filled with laughter, friendship and toe-tapping fun. It was a afternoon that created wonderful memories for all as we embraced the spirit of the Wild West!
What a spectacular afternoon at Ashchurch View!
We had the absolute pleasure of welcoming back the incredibly talented JB Steel Pan to our home! Our residents gathered outside in our beautifully kept courtyard gardens, which were decorated in a burst of wonderful, bright colours for the occasion.
Our amazing activities team turned up the fun by providing musical instruments, Hawaiian-style garlands, and grass skirts.
Everyone had a blast dancing around the garden and keeping our residents thoroughly entertained!
The sun was shining, the steel pan music was beautiful, and the energy was filled with smiles and laughter.
Thank you, JB Steel Pan, for bringing the sounds of the Caribbean straight to our courtyard!
Tewkesbury Museum back to our Home
We had a fantastic afternoon welcoming the Tewkesbury Museum back to our home!
Our residents loved hearing the fascinating stories behind the local historical objects brought along for the talk.
Everyone especially enjoyed the hands-on experience of holding the unique artifacts and reading about their rich history.
Thank you so much to the museum team for such a wonderful, educational, and engaging afternoon!
