Festival of the Flowers at Chichester Cathedral
Festival of the Flowers – wow, what an amazing show!
Congratulations to the Chichester Cathedral and everyone involved in creating the flower displays. It was absolutely stunning and full of wonder at every turn. We loved spotting all the little butterflies hidden throughout the displays, and there were certainly some enormous strawberries in The Lady Chapel, they were almost too good to resist!
We took some of our residents along, and they absolutely loved every minute of it.
Thank you to everyone whose hard work, creativity, and dedication made this such a memorable experience and to our staff who volunteered to support the residents.
National Volunteers’ Week
As part of National Volunteers’ Week, we would like to say a massive thank you to two very special people who make such a difference to life in our home.
Firstly, a heartfelt thank you to Father Richard, who regularly visits to deliver Holy Communion to our residents. Your kindness, faith, and dedication bring comfort, peace, and joy to so many.
We would also like to give a huge and heartfelt thank you to our wonderful volunteer, Jean. Jean is an absolute superstar who not only supports our residents but also brightens the days of our staff. Her kindness, dedication, encouragement, and appreciation mean the world to us all. She is a truly amazing lady who continues to care for and inspire everyone around her.
Thank you both for everything you do. We are incredibly grateful and so lucky to have you as part of our home family.

The Power of Networking!
We were delighted to host another successful Professionals Networking Breakfast, bringing together local professionals to connect, collaborate and build meaningful relationships.
Networking is about so much more than exchanging business cards, it’s about creating opportunities, sharing knowledge, supporting one another and strengthening our local community. Every conversation has the potential to spark a new partnership, inspire fresh ideas or make a positive difference.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to such a welcoming and engaging morning. It was fantastic to see so many professionals coming together with a shared commitment to collaboration and community.
We look forward to welcoming both familiar and new faces at our next Networking event. Together, we’re building connections that truly make a difference.
