How wonderful, residents at Magnolia Court grew the tallest Sunflower in the Age UK Barnet tallest sunflower competition.

Residents love spending time in our lovely garden so it was great getting involved with Age UK’s Barnet’s gardening project.

We have lots of fragrant herbs, home grown veggies and brightly coloured flowers a little haven to sit in and garden in.

Trip to the Arts Depot

It's Magic !

Residents and team members from Magnolia Court enjoyed a fabulous trip arranged by our Life enrichment team. We hopped on the mini bus and set off for the Arts Depot in Finchley.

We went to see The Morgan and West Magic show. It was a great show and afterwards we were treated to some live music and looked at the interesting art on display.

Then back to Magnolia Court where our chefs had a wonderful supper waiting for us.
