Harvest Festival

Harvest Festival

Kings Park was delighted to welcome Moordown Baptist Church for our Harvest Festival service, bringing residents, visitors and members of our community together for a special occasion of reflection, gratitude and giving.
 
Everyone was invited to bring a tin of food to support our local community, and we were so pleased to see two baskets filled with generous donations. Every tin represents a small act of kindness that can make a real difference to someone in need.
 
A heartfelt thank you to Moordown Baptist Church for delivering such a lovely service, and to everyone who contributed to our collection.
 
It was a wonderful reminder that when a community comes together, even the smallest gesture can have a meaningful impact.
 
One tin ~ One community ~ One act of kindness

A Little Retail Therapy

A Little Retail Therapy

There was a lovely buzz at Kings Park as we welcomed **Linnie’s Fashion** for a pop-up shop visit.

Our residents enjoyed browsing the latest styles, having a look at the clothes and perhaps finding a little something special to take home.

It was a lovely opportunity to enjoy some shopping without having to leave the comfort of Kings Park, with plenty of chatting, browsing and a little retail therapy along the way!

A big thank you to Linnie’s Fashion for coming along and bringing the shop to us. We look forward to welcoming you back!

Dancing to Bob Seymour's Music

Dancing to Bob Seymour's Music

Thank you to Bob Seymour for regularly playing such a great variety of music to our residents. Seeing our residents tapping their feet, singing along to favourite songs, clapping their hands and enjoying a dance, it's a reminder of how music has a magical way of encouraging movement and lifting spirits.
