GARDENING, MUSIC AND TRIPS OUT MAKE FOR AN ACTION PACKED MONTH!
We’ve had an action-packed month at The Mayfield Care Home with lots going on and several more residents joining us.
Our first “pop-up restaurants” were a huge success with lots of friends and family coming in to join their loved ones for these fantastic, themed evenings. Our first ones, chosen by our residents, were Chinese and Indian and we had wonderful decorations, music, and of course delicious food prepared by our excellent kitchen team. The Chicken Tikka Masala and Lamb Rogan Josh were amazing!
Many of our residents have been gardening for a long time and we love to help them carry on this much-loved pastime. It’s such an enjoyable activity with many physical and mental benefits. We’ve had several outings, including a tea at Sneaton Castle which our residents loved. Sneaton Castle is stunning and we’re very lucky to have such a fabulous place right next door – we look forward to visiting again soon!
The Mayfield Care Home in Whitby is open and welcoming new residents for short- and long-term stays. If you or a loved one are interested in coming to live with us, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Our friendly team is always happy to help – please call us on 01947 280 884.
Whitby music legend Steve Maltby came in for his first singalong which was brilliant. Steve, our residents, and team belted out classics such as Let’s All Go Down the Strand, I Do Like to Be Beside the Seaside, and Waltzing Matilda. It was such a success that Steve will now be coming in for regular singalongs with us!
Our garden continues to improve and we’re very grateful to our residents for all their help. We’ve had several highly successful trips to the garden centre and bought lots of different coloured Begonias and Busy Lizzies which we’ve enjoyed planting.
