We have to get ahead for Christmas as we have so many festive plans. Residents love to get involved too, so it is good to have a long run up! But, we are also enjoying more Autumnal activities. We have had visits from the students of Kempsey Primary School and The Kings School, Worcester. It’s so lovely for the different generations to share stories, listen to music and play games together.
We have also had visits from new four-legged friends, Ragnar the cockerpoo and some newborn kittens. Plus, we celebrated World Animal Day and hosted a horse racing event for Gents Club.

Our Christmas Fayre Fundraiser will be on Sunday 1st December. Residents are sewing, knitting, planting, making jams and chutneys, all in readiness for the day.
Our Christmas trees go up on 3rd December and residents will be unboxing the baubles and decking the halls in the afternoon, getting into the festive spirit!

Plus another opportunity to get together on Thursday 19th December from 2.30pm for carolling at our candle lit memorial service with our local church.
