There was quite a buzz outside our home on Saturday as over 30 scooters rolled in, all there for a very special reason 💜

The came to visit in support of one of our residents who used to be part of their club, and it was clear just how much that connection still means. Seeing the scooters lined up and hearing the stories being shared brought back some lovely memories.

We paired it all with a little Italian flair, with delicious food and live music from Lorraine Ely setting the tone for the afternoon. Our residents were tapping along, chatting away and soaking it all in… it really was a marvellous day 😊

A trip to our local antiques centre is always a favourite, and this visit was no exception. There was plenty of reminiscing, lots to discover and, as always, wonderful company along the way at St Mary's Court Care Home 💜

We're so lucky to have Petersfield Antiques Fair just around the corner. With so many fascinating treasures to browse, it's easy to lose track of time! 🕰️

Afterwards, we enjoyed a delicious cream tea and cakes at Fox in the Stables Tearooms , where we're always made to feel so welcome. A lovely afternoon from start to finish ☕🍰

The sunshine brought something a little extra to our day, especially with a very special visitor joining us ☀️

Our residents enjoyed a brilliant Danny Leroux tribute, and it did not take long before the room filled with music and familiar lyrics. Some of our lovely ladies were straight in with the singing, while others smiled, tapped along and soaked it all up 💜

There is something quite special about live music. Watching our residents come together, enjoying the moment and each other’s company made the afternoon one to remember. A big thank you to Mark for such a wonderful visit 🎤

There were plenty of wagging tails and happy faces at St Mary's Court Care Home when six adorable Pomeranians came to pay us a visit 🐾💜

Our wonderful residents loved spending time with their fluffy guests, enjoying cuddles, gentle strokes and getting to know each of their unique personalities. Before long, the room was full of smiles and conversations, with lots of happy memories of beloved pets being shared along the way 😊

A big thank you to the wonderful volunteers from Pawsitive Social society for bringing them along. They may have been small in size, but they certainly stole plenty of hearts during their visit 🐶💜
