We are absolutely delighted and incredibly proud to announce that our care home has once again achieved Gold Standard in Leamington in Bloom! 16 YEARS IN A ROW! This wonderful achievement is a testament to the hard work, dedication and passion of our Head of Maintenance Waldemar, who helps keep our gardens looking beautiful throughout the year. 

Our gardens are a special place for our residents to enjoy the fresh air, admire the flowers, spend time with loved ones and make precious memories. A huge thank you to Waldemar who has helped us achieve this incredible milestone, we are so proud to be part of such a beautiful community and to keep bringing colour, joy and happiness to our surroundings! 16 years of blooming brilliance!  

Our lovely Resident Ambassador Cheryl, has been busy choosing beautiful flowers from Floral Image, to brighten up the vase in our reception area. 

It’s wonderful to see our residents sharing their ideas and helping to make our home feel warm, welcoming and full of colour. A little choice can make a big difference, and we love seeing our residents’ personalities shine through in the little touches that make our home special,   

The residents, staff, family and friends had a fun day at our Oktoberfest celebrations. In the morning, we enjoyed lots of German treats just as German biscuits and pretzels, and some fun friendly games and competitions. 

We listened to a variety of German music, dressed up in our Oktoberfest clothes, had a German-themed lunch and then an afternoon of Oktoberfest bingo and an Oktoberfest Quiz. Everyone commented on how they really enjoyed the day.  

Our wonderful Resident Ambassador Charlie has been out and about in the local village, hiding spooky ghosts and pumpkins for the community to find! As part of our commitment to intergenerational engagement and community connections, this fun Halloween activity brings a little seasonal magic to people of all ages, encouraging families, children and local residents to get involved in the excitement. It’s a lovely way to bring generations together, create smiles, spark conversations and remind everyone that you’re never too old to enjoy a little Halloween fun!
