A wonderful visit from Chalmworth Miniatures at Milford House!
What an amazing animal adventure at Milford House!
We had a fantastic visit from ZooLab bringing a wonderful selection of fascinating creatures for us to meet up close!
From spiders and stick insects to cockroaches, snakes and frogs, there was something to amaze, surprise and excite everyone!
The residents had the opportunity to learn lots of interesting facts, discover more about these incredible animals and, for the brave ones, even get the chance to hold some of them!
There were plenty of big smiles, curious questions and unforgettable moments throughout the visit.
A huge thank you to ZooLab for such an exciting and educational experience, we loved meeting all our new animal friends!

Supporting our local community
We’re pleased to share that Marriott House & Lodge is now a collection point for Chichester Food Bank.
If you’re able to donate, you can drop off much-needed non-perishable food and essential items at Marriott House & Lodge. Every donation, no matter how small, can make a real difference to local individuals and families who are facing difficult times.
Your kindness can help put food on the table and bring a little support when it’s needed most.
Thank you to everyone who donates and helps us support our local community. Together, we can make a difference.
Cook’s Corner!
We all love Cook’s Corner, and this time they’ve been busy baking these absolutely gorgeous cherry-topped cupcakes! Just look at those icing swirls… professional standard!
There was just one little problem… there wasn’t quite enough to go around! We might have to get the chopping board out and cut them up so everyone gets a share!
They were definitely a hit, so we think these delicious cupcakes will be making another appearance very soon.
Well done, Cook’s Corner! We can’t wait to see what you bake next!
Taking Flight at the Air Museum
Our residents enjoyed a fantastic day out to the Air Museum, exploring an incredible collection of historic aircraft and reminiscing about aviation through the years.
The museum has proved so popular with our residents we have been twice this month! Both days were wonderful & filled with memories, laughter & conversation.
Our activities coordinator said: "It was great to see how much our residents enjoyed the daym sharing memories & stories while exploring the aircraft together"
Diving into local history!
We had a wonderful time one afternoon as we welcomed the team from the Woking Lightbox for a fascinating history talk. Our residents loved exploring old photographs, sharing stories, and learning more about the rich heritage of our local area. A huge thank you to The Lightbox for bringing such an engaging and nostalgic experience right into our home!
