January always feels like the calm after the storm of Christmas festivities in Katherine House & Griffiths House! The Wellbeing Team are excited for warmer days and creating uplifting events & activities on the calendar. As the new year begins, we're reflecting on the challenging past two years that we have been through together. We feel very proud of all the fantastic staff, family members, friends of the home and residents here for their positivity and kindness during this time, particularly the heroic carers for their hard work and commitment to their roles. Here's to new beginnings and a happy and healthy 2022!

Our new chickens have raised some excitement by laying their first blue eggs!
The Wellbeing Team have appreciated help from the residents to collect the eggs, feed our lovely hens and keep a watch over them as we let them out to roam free on the grounds. Its wonderful to see the positive affect that a visit to the coop can have on the mood of residents from both homes. The chickens are very lucky to have such a lovely group of people to care for them.
