๐Ÿ“š Happy National Read a Book Day! ๐Ÿ“š

Today, as we celebrate the joy of reading, we are delighted to celebrate one of our wonderful residents, Gwyneth, who worked as a librarian for many years in Harpenden. โค๏ธ

In preparation for National Read a Book Day, I took Gwyneth back to the library where she worked on Friday. It was a very special and nostalgic visit for her. She had the opportunity to meet some of the staff, look around the bookshelves, and reminisce about her years working there.

We also spent some lovely time reading two books together before saying goodbye. ๐Ÿ“–๐Ÿ˜Š Gwyneth thoroughly enjoyed the experience and has already expressed her wish to visit again sometime.

It was wonderful to see how a familiar place and the simple pleasure of books brought back such happy memories. โค๏ธ

Happy National Read a Book Day to all the wonderful readers out there! ๐Ÿ“š Why not pick up a book and enjoy a few pages today? You never know what memories, adventures or new discoveries might be waiting for you! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ“–

Another Fun Filled Week at Willow Court! ๐ŸŽ‰

It has been another wonderful week filled with fun, laughter and engaging activities for our residents! ๐Ÿ˜Š

On Wednesday morning, we enjoyed our Omi Board Game for the month of September led by Chris and Kate volunteers from HarpendenTrust/ Harpenden Memory Lane, followed by an exciting game of Snakes and Ladders in the afternoon. There was plenty of friendly competition and lots of smiles! ๐ŸŽฒ๐Ÿ˜„

On Thursday morning, we were delighted to welcome Karen and her team from the Methodist Church, Harpenden, who led our Dementia-Friendly Service and at the same time we also had Quiz Time led by Dami on one of the other units. It was a lovely and meaningful time for our residents. โค๏ธ

The fun continued in the afternoon with our popular Balloon Game, bringing plenty of laughter and enjoyment. ๐ŸŽˆ

And to round off the week, we had a fantastic Sing Along on Friday, with our residents joining in and enjoying some of their favourite songs. ๐ŸŽถ๐ŸŽค

It has truly been a fun filled week, and we are so pleased to see many of our residents getting involved, enjoying themselves and creating wonderful memories together. ๐Ÿ’•๐Ÿ˜Š

๐ŸŒPOSTCARDS FROM AROUND THE WORLD ๐ŸŒ

Weโ€™re excited to be taking part in Quantum Careโ€™s โ€˜Postcards From Around the Worldโ€™ campaign this September! Inspired by todayโ€™s World Letter Writing Day, weโ€™re inviting people from all around the world to pick up a pen and send a handwritten postcard to our care home.

Our challenge? To receive postcards from as many different countries as possible! As the postcards arrive, our residents will add a sticker to the world map displayed in our home, ticking off each country we receive a postcard from ๐Ÿ’Œ

And thereโ€™s a little friendly competition too! Weโ€™ll be competing against other Quantum Care homes, with the winning home being the one that receives postcards from the highest number of different countries.

๐Ÿ“ฎ Can you help us?

If you, your family or friends live anywhere around the world, or youโ€™re going on holiday in the near future, weโ€™d love you to send a handwritten postcard to our residents. Please share this post and help us spread the word! Letโ€™s see how many countries we can reach together.

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the relaxing experience and gave some wonderful feedback about how refreshed and relaxed they felt afterwards. ๐ŸŒธโœจ
