Activities at Tennyson Wharf Care Home

We were so thankful for the kind donation of fresh fruit and vegetables that we received from Nathan Willows Fresh Produce Home Deliveries yesterday.

Yesterday was National Smoothie day and with the generosity from Nathan, we celebrated that by making our own smoothies full of goodness.

The fruit was wonderfully fresh and delicious and gave us the energy we needed for our seated yoga session as it was also International Yoga Day yesterday!

This charming shop is a family business that is full to the brim with the freshest and tastiest fruit and vegetables. Ideally situated and even has delivery options available!

We feel lucky to have such supportive businesses local to us.

Thank you so much Nathan Willows Fresh Produce

Norah Shaw who resides at Tennyson Wharf care home on the stunning Burton Waters marina. Norah who celebrates her 105th in August challenged our General Manager to a table tennis match as the home were celebrating Wimbledon. The residents and staff enjoyed strawberries and cream whilst watching Wimbledon and playing table tennis. 

Our General Manager Zoe King said ‘I couldn’t believe how hard Norah made me work, considering she is 104 I couldn’t believe I came away sweating! We are planning a big party to celebrate Norah’s big birthday, she is such a wonderful resident. She enjoys joining in with all of our activities our team puts on here and recently thanked all of our staff for their hard work in our resident meeting’. 

Another resident added ‘She was fantastic, it was amazing to watch. We all had so much fun and burst out in fits of laughter when Norah said ‘Well, I made her sweat for it didn’t I!’.
