Activities at Glebefields Care Home

A beautiful Mother’s Day celebration at Glebefields, filled with love, laughter, and special moments.
Residents enjoyed visits and video calls from family near and far, making the day extra special. The home was decorated with flowers and bunting, creating a lovely atmosphere for the celebration.

We had a wonderful cake-cutting party, a visit from Lucia and her adorable small farm animals, and plenty of music and gifts for every resident. Our head chef created a lovely Mother’s Day cake, which was enjoyed by all.

A huge thank you to our amazing team for making the day so memorable, and to all the families who helped us celebrate the wonderful mums, grandmas, and special ladies in our lives.

We had a fantastic time celebrating St. Patrick’s Day yesterday, with fun all around the home. 

From a delicious Irish-inspired lunch of Irish pork sausages with Colcannon mash, followed by Irish bread pudding, to an afternoon filled with history, quizzes, Irish poetry, crafts and limericks, there was plenty to enjoy.

The celebrations wouldn’t be complete without traditional Irish music, a taste of Guinness, refreshing Green Apple mocktails, and, of course, some Irish shortbread biscuits to snack on.

We had a grand celebration at Glebefields Care Home, decorating the entire place to make it a special day for Marlene. As a proud Welsh lady, she was surrounded by her loving family, caring staff, and like-minded friends. 

Marlene's family joined us, sharing fond memories of her childhood. Her daughter was thrilled to see her mum celebrating with our residents. Our chef prepared a delicious cake and afternoon snacks, making the celebration even more enjoyable.

Marlene was beaming with happiness, and her family appreciated the love and care we showed her. We're so grateful to have Marlene as part of our Glebefields Family.

We hope Marlene had an amazing day and felt loved and celebrated by our staff and lovely residents. Lots of love from everyone at Glebefields Family.

Celebrations were under way at Glebefields care home, as residents and staff marked St. David’s Day. Our residents and staff got crafty making St David's Day-themed crafts, and we decorated the home with Welsh flags and daffodils. 

We watched Wales tours and traditional dances on TV, and enjoyed delicious Welsh cakes and tea in the afternoon. It was wonderful to see everyone go to so much effort to get involved with the day’s celebrations. 

Our residents and staff came together to celebrate Pancake Day, also known as Shrove Tuesday, in the most delicious way by flipping pancakes and customising them with their favourite toppings. From classic lemon and sugar to indulgent chocolate and fruit, everyone had a wonderful time making and eating their perfect pancake.

Pancake Day has been celebrated in the UK for centuries. Traditionally, Shrove Tuesday marks the day before Lent, a period of fasting leading up to Easter. It was a way for people to use up rich ingredients like eggs, milk, and flour before the fasting period began. Over time, it has become a fun and much-loved tradition, with pancake races and flipping challenges taking place across the country.

It was a lovely day with laughter, teamwork, and, of course, plenty of tasty treats. A big thank you to everyone who joined in the fun and made it a truly flipping fantastic celebration.

Tom, Margaret, and Sheila had a fantastic morning out with staff Kay and Sheela on a trip to Barn Farm Plants & Antiques Centre. 

They loved wandering through the beautiful plants, browsing all the unique antiques, and soaking up the lovely atmosphere. Of course, a hot drink and a toasted tea cake was a must. 

Everyone had a great time, chatting, laughing, and enjoying a relaxing break together. We love seeing our residents out and about, making memories and enjoying special moments.
