Halloween Fun At Charnley House Care Home in Hyde

Our residents and staff really enjoyed Halloween this year, prepping for the day by colouring and making decorations and carving scary pumpkins! As you can see, Charnley House looked very spooky indeed for the festivities. We then had Halloween themed games and treats.

There have been lots of fun goings on recently at Charnley House.

Our residents have been making their own delicious trifles (some with more cream on the top than others)

We've had some rather competitive games of giant snakes and ladders

And have been colouring in a large I Love Manchester poster, which now has pride of place on display

We've also had a sing along and some dancing too. Staff and residents alike enjoyed themselves thoroughly.

7^th February was National Send a Card to a Friend Day, a chance to tell your friends how much they mean to you by way of a card.

There was a time when men and women wrote daily notes to their friends. There were thank you notes, party invitations, love notes and of course the gossip filled notes catching up on the previous evening’s antics! Now we have a minute to minute digital journal on social media! So National Send a Card to a Friend Day is all about stepping away from the devices and showing someone how much they mean to you.

So, here are some of the cards that we made and send to celebrate National Send a Card Day.

Also, Global Movie Day is held on the second Saturday of February each year to celebrate the power movies have to reach, connect and inspire people around the world. So, we decided to have our own movie night. We made a makeshift cinema with snacks and popcorn and enjoyed watching some great movies from different eras of film. Everyone really enjoyed the event and we had a good chat about the films afterwards as well.
