Take a look at what's been going on in our wonderful home this month:

Mental Stimulation is so Important

Today we focussed on mental stimulation and well-being. Musical memories prompted us to think about the entertainers of our younger years, lots of singing, dancing, and chatting, followed by a few rounds of hangman. Anybody else ready for a nap?!

The Easter Bunny Came To Visit!

The Easter Bunny (Sharon) has visited the residents today, with lots of smiles all round. Our hospitality team has also gifted lots of beautiful chocolate treats to the residents. Super team!

Happy Birthday Eileen!! We all hope you enjoyed the celebrations and your cake!

Tuesday Morning Singing at Leycester House

A wonderful way to start this beautiful Tuesday morning at Leycester House. Choir with Victoria and Sharon. Singing is known for releasing endorphins and giving a natural feel-good boost

Virtual Opera at Leycester House

a virtual afternoon at the opera with Sharon this afternoon, you can see the concentration on their faces! We look forward to the day that these wonderful singers can return to our home!

Exercise and Bubble Blowing!

What a busy day our lovely ladies have had, top floor enjoyed their balloons and tassels chair exercise and had a giggle bubble blowing with Sharon. Kannika challenged our ground floor to a hat decorating contest. Lots of smiles today

Singing with Pavarotti on the middle floor this afternoon, we loved hearing our ladies just as much as they enjoyed singing to us!

Today we said Happy Birthday to Marjorie. Cards, flowers, and a beautiful cake direct from our chefs.

An afternoon with Accordionist Ilona

A wonderful afternoon with Accordionist Ilona from Constella Opera Arts full of folk music from around the world. We were transported to Argentina with some Tango music, which inspired us to watch Argentine Tango Dancers online.

Pimms and Prosecco Afternoon for our Lovely Leycester House Ladies

Pimms & Prosecco o’clock could be enjoyed by lots of our residents today. It’s a delight to see the entire home enjoying drinks in the garden. Lots of smiles and laughter & from all floors of the home. Fabulous job from the entire team today to make it a special afternoon for everyone.
