This week we welcomed our new resident, Audrey!
With that beautiful smile and great sense of humour she quickly become part of our Woodlands family!
Warm Welcome Audrey! We are so happy to have you with us!
With the weather being so nice we decided to do our jigsaw club in the garden this week.
We chose summer themed puzzles and had a nice chat about our favourite holidays and places we had visited while working very hard to put the pieces in the right place.

A Big Thank you to our volunteer David who kindly donated two boards with pictures of 60’s which our residents loved it. They all had a good chat remembering the 60’s
Nice to remember the swinging 60’s, Kath and Pat look like they recognize a lot of pictures on the board.
Joan and Beryl look like they are having a great time remembering.
As the week went on, we still had the sunshine so our Volunteer Ian did a big crossword quiz with the residents.
