The Run Up To Christmas At Charnley House

Well, the run up to Christmas has been full of activities and fun here at Charnley House.

We’ve made a wish/like tree and the residents have hung a wish or like on it.

Newton the cat has been for a visit again. The residents always love it when we have Newton out for them to stroke.

We’ve had some wonderful flower arranging by the residents, which are looking beautiful on display.

We’ve been writing Christmas cards to family members…

And doing some Christmas colouring.

We’ve been getting ready for all those Christmas parties with our ladies having their nails done.

We’ve been making decorations and the residents have been doing some festive artwork to display around the home.

And finally, the trees are up around Charnley House. It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

We’ve had a very busy and interesting few weeks here at Charnley House car home in Hyde.

Firstly, staff and residents alike would like to express their sadness at the passing of Queen Elizabeth and thank her for all her work over the past 70 years. We celebrated her life over the last few weeks and watched the funeral with great solemnity but also with joy at remembering her majesty and all the kind and wonderful things she did.

We decorated Charnley House with the union flag and photographs and had tea and cake and scones in her honour.

We’ve had a very competitive games afternoon playing Connect 4. You can see from the photographs who was celebrating their wins!

We’ve been making cookies and, of course, eating them once they were ready. They were absolutely delicious!!

We’ve also had a jigsaw afternoon, which was very relaxing.

We’ve been out on a boat trip in the last of the lovely weather with some fantastic wildlife on show, and, of course, there were ice creams for all!
