Christmas Festivities at Charnley House

The festive season is truly magical here at Charnley House. In the run-up to Christmas, our residents, staff, and visitors have been embracing the holiday spirit with plenty of fun, laughter, and togetherness. Here’s a glimpse into what we’ve been up to this December!

Cherished Christmas Visits

There’s nothing quite like spending time with loved ones, and our Christmas visits have been a highlight for residents and their families. It’s heart-warming to see the joy on everyone’s faces as they come together to celebrate the season. Our residents loved posing for pictures with their families in front of our festive decorations – memories to treasure forever!

Festive Baking Fun

The smell of Christmas filled the air as our residents got creative in the kitchen. Together, we made delightful puff pastry Christmas trees filled with Nutella, bringing smiles and plenty of sticky fingers! Baking is always a favourite activity here, and this time, it was made even more special by the festive cheer in the room.

Decking the Halls

Our home is looking extra festive this year, thanks to our residents and staff. Together, we decorated our Christmas trees and created a cozy Christmas fireplace centrepiece that has become the heart of our celebrations. Everyone pitched in, whether it was hanging ornaments or putting the finishing touches on the décor.

Weekly Hairdresser Visits

Looking and feeling our best is important, especially during the holidays! Our residents enjoy their weekly trips to the hairdresser, and the festive season is the perfect time for a little extra pampering. With everyone feeling fresh and fabulous, we’re ready to celebrate Christmas in style.

A Rockin’ Christmas Party

The highlight of the season was our Christmas party day, where we were treated to a very special performance from “Elvis.” His lively set had everyone clapping, singing along, and even dancing! It’s always a pleasure to host such incredible entertainment, and this year’s party was certainly one to remember.

Wishing You a Merry Christmas

At Charnley House, Christmas is all about making meaningful connections and creating unforgettable memories. We hope you’ve enjoyed this peek into our festive activities.

From all of us at Charnley House, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Festive Fun at Rotherwood Care Home in Rotherham

The residents and staff at Rotherwood have had some great fun in the build up to Christmas.

We have enjoyed Christmas Arts & Crafts throughout the month where we have enjoyed making Christmas cards for our loved ones. We have also enjoyed using Lego this month, this has helped some of our residents with focusing and stimulation.

Rotherwood’s Choir have been practising throughout the month for an afternoon Christmas performance, which all residents and staff thoroughly enjoyed taking part in!

On the 1st of December we enjoyed a visit from Father Christmas at Rotherwood. We had hot chocolates, coffees and all residents enjoyed a little present from Father Christmas before he arrives on the 25th of December.

We enjoyed our Christmas Party on the 19th December. We enjoyed mocktails, mince pies, a beautiful buffet and a live singer where we danced the afternoon away. Everyone at Rotherwood really enjoyed celebrating the festive season, and thanked singer Nikki for visiting and making the afternoon so enjoyable.
