We’ve had another lovely week at Ashgrove House with plenty going on for our residents.

The week has been filled with arts and crafts, knitting, music and movement, coffee mornings, games and lots of laughter together.

On Wednesday, we also held a cream tea gathering where residents had the opportunity to meet the new owners of Ashgrove House. It was a lovely afternoon, giving everyone the chance to chat over tea, scones and cakes in a relaxed setting.

One of the highlights of the week was our trip to Bourton-on-the-Water. The weather was kind to us, everyone enjoyed looking around the village, and to top it all off we were treated to a free ice cream, which certainly went down well! 🍦

Unfortunately, David’s Magic & Singing Show had to cancel at short notice, but a huge thank you to Tony M, who stepped in at the last minute. Residents thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon, and we’re very grateful he was able to save the day. 🎵

Thank you, as always, to our fantastic staff, volunteers, relatives and friends for your continued support. We hope everyone has a wonderful week ahead! 💚🏡
