Residents enjoy knit and natter project

Taking place every Wednesday, our wonderful residents with the support of Sarah, a fantastic crafter from the community join together to create memories and items to enjoy.

Sarah commented ‘It never ceases to amaze me the enjoyment knitting brings to the residents from the moment they pick up the needle to their end creation. Over the last 2 and a half years we have collectively made blankets, cushion covers, bags, Easter bunnies plus many more. I find the sessions so rewarding and look forward to catching up with the residents each week.’

Community Events

Last night our General Manager Aga and Deputy Manager Monica attended a wonderful professionals networking event run by CotswoldNetworking at The Ivy Bath!

They got to meet so many fantastic local businesses and we are really excited to build on those relationships and work with our new connections in the future.

Weystone Manor Care Home

Did you know?!

Weystone Manor is the very first home within Barchester Healthcare to have underfloor heating!

This comes with some fantastic benefits for our residents, a few of these are:

- More bedroom space for our residents so they can bring more of their own furniture should they wish.

- Improved air quality, which is particularly beneficial for those who suffer with allergies.

- Even heat distribution and zone controlled, keeping our residents lovely and warm in the colder months (should they choose to be).

- Energy efficient, which of course is important to all of us!
