Activities at Upton Bay Care Home

We are overjoyed to gather together to celebrate the remarkable 67th wedding anniversary of Ted and Dulcie. Their enduring love for each other and their cherished town of Wareham has been an inspiration to us all.

Throughout their incredible journey, there was one dream that had remained unfulfilled for Ted and Dulcie - a scenic river trip through the beautiful town of Wareham. Both Ted and Dulcie, along with their dear friend June, had always longed for this experience but never had the opportunity to make it a reality.

Today, however, we are thrilled to share that the Upton Bay team, in collaboration with the Friends of Dolphin Boats, has made this dream a reality for our beloved couple. Through their dedication and unwavering support, they have orchestrated an unforgettable Wareham River Trip for Ted, Dulcie, and June .
 

Spiritual Sunday Service at Upton Bay was a beautiful and meaningful experience. Our lovely resident, Dorothy, took the initiative to arrange the prayers and hymns for the service. Her piano playing added a touch of serenity and uplifted our hearts.

During the service, Joyce led the reading of the Bible, sharing words of wisdom and inspiration with the community. Karen Activities also contributed by reading two happiness poems, spreading joy and positivity amongst us. We concluded the service with the Upton Bay Prayer, bringing us closer together and fostering a sense of unity.

We are thrilled to announce the arrival of our new resident, Joseph, at Upton Bay. Joseph made the wonderful decision to move in on his birthday, and the Upton Bay community couldn't have been more excited to welcome him with open arms.

To make Joseph's arrival even more special, the Upton Bay community organised a surprise welcome celebration. We had the pleasure of having Steve Linn who perform some of Joseph's favourite songs.

Residents Rita, Margaret G, Barbara G, Maureen, and Patricia, accompanied by Karen, our Activities Lead, and Mark, our Bus Driver, enjoyed a delightful afternoon at The Bridge House Hotel in Longham. They gathered on the Terrace, soaking in the beauty of their surroundings as they observed the world passing by. The horses in the nearby field captured their attention, and they delighted in the sight of the river Stour gracefully flowing. Basking in the warm sunshine, they savored their cold beverages, creating a truly pleasant experience. All the residents unanimously expressed their joy, agreeing that it was indeed a lovely afternoon out.
