Our residents have been enjoying many trips out of the home recently.
We’ve been to Woburn Safari Park and enjoyed driving through the park and seeing the wildlife close up 🐘🦒🦁🐒 We had a hot meal in the restaurant before heading home and driving back through the park again where monkeys jumped on the roof causing excitement amongst the residents.
We’ve also been on a Canal Boat trip travelling along the Grand Union Canal.
Our residents enjoyed hot drinks and biscuits 🍪 before enjoying a fish and chip lunch. This was followed by more drinks and cake 🍰.
Residents were able to sit up on deck to enjoy the lovely weather☀️🕶️ and get a better view of the locks being opened and closed and feed the ducks 🦆
We’ve also been to Dunstable Downs, Poplars Garden Centre, Costa, Church, Houghton Hall Green and the local shops.
We’ve also enjoyed a ‘Buddy Holly’ tribute performance by Joe. Our residents were singing and dancing along to the music.
In between these trips our residents have enjoyed a Spa Afternoon with face masks, manicure and polish and hand massages and many other activities.
Our residents also enjoy Home visits by our local Priest.

In August Mike and Lou came to Rosalyn House to perform their ‘🌴Palm trees and Pineapples 🍍’ show and as photos show, everyone had a great time singing and dancing 💃 🕺
We’ve also been on a few trips to Dunstable Downs and watched the children running around and flying their kites 🪁 visiting the cafe ☕️🍰and the on-site shop.
We’ve also taken our residents to Church, local shops and Houghton Hall Green.
We’ve added a Spa Afternoon, Book Club 📚, Knit & Natter 🧶 and Gents Club to our weekly activities too.

Our Summer Fete was a huge success 👏
We had a raffle 🎟️, tombola, w**e or water, hook-a-duck 🐤, lucky dips for girls and boys, a sweet stall 🍭, guess the name of the flamingo , guess how many sweets in the jar and a table top sale
Kath ran the arts and crafts stall, many of the items were made by her. She also comes to our home to make pieces with our residents (which were also on sale at her stall). The best bit is that she made nearly £50 on the day for ‘Homeless Cat Rescue’ in Bedfordshire.
Thank you so much for all that you do for us Kath.
A big thank you to Gary our chef for the wonderful BBQ food that you cooked and for providing the music and karaoke 🎤 with your Uncle Mick and Cousin Jason (M&G Entertainment).
A massive ‘Thank You’ for the donations from our local community with a gift card (worth £22.00) from Razors and two bottles of w**e from the Post Office. Plus a generous donation of £100 from Jewels.
Also, ‘Thank You’ to our residents families, friends and staff for your donations they really are all greatly appreciated.
Thank you to our helpers that ran the stalls on a very hot 🔥 day - Sam (Manager), Donna, Dawn (laundry), Carol, Megan and ‘Sylvia’s Dawn.
Last but not least ‘thank you’ to everyone that came and made this day special.
We raised £671.01 in total and this will go into our ‘Resident Fund’ along with money previously raised to help us buy a special interactive touchscreen table for our lovely residents.

Our residents haven been enjoying the hot 🔥 weather lately and having plenty of fun in the sun ☀️. Thank you to all staff involved👏
Leyla came to sing at Rosalyn House and our residents really enjoyed her performance and joined in singing the familiar songs.
This was followed by more entertainment with Mark Rooer and his wife Louise. Our residents really enjoyed their performance too.
We have been busy taking our residents on trips 🚐 out of the home to Poplars Nursery 🪴and into the local community. Residents have been following the FIFA World Cup and enjoying snacks from our ‘Football’ trolley ⚽️🍿🍻
We held an art and craft session which was led by Kath (one of our resident’s daughter)
She brought in paints, baubles and vases and demonstrated how to do a marbling effect on these items. Our residents really enjoyed doing this and the results are really good.
We will be selling all the homemade products at our fete 🎪 in a week on Saturday 25th July 🎈
Please come and support us if you can or bring donations of bric-a-brac for our table top sale. Any gift sets and bottles of alcohol and chocolates for prizes will be gratefully received.
We hope to see you there 🤞🤞🤞

We have been busy taking our residents out and about in the community now the weather is getting warmer. With trips to the shops, Costa ☕️, Houghton Hall park.
We celebrated VE Day 🇬🇧 in the garden with Leyla singing all the well-known war songs. Our residents really enjoyed the afternoon with some singing along and others becoming a little emotional 🥲 This was followed by afternoon tea and cakes made by the residents.

Despite the cold weather a few residents were happy to go on a trip to Ashridge House in the minibus. This place was chosen by one of our residents who had been there before and really wanted to go back again. As usual we had to go for a ☕️and a 🍰 in the cafe.
The next day we had a visit from singer and guitarist David Gibbons. He sang all types of songs, including folk songs. He was recommended by one of our residents and was happy to perform for free.
Thank you David for giving up your spare time. 👏👏👏
