Activities at Boroughbridge Manor Care Home

Residents across our services had a lovely time joining Emily and Marie-Therese from the Wallace Collection, for a virtual introduction to Reubens' Rainbow Landscape.

Residents truly enjoyed the sensory walk through one of the museum’s most famous landscape paintings.

Everyone who joined had a wonderful experience and can’t wait to put their creative skills to the test by painting some landscapes of our their in the coming days!
 

we were delighted to hold our first Chitter Chatter Coffee Morning as we welcomed our residents to join the team for a morning natter over a selection of tasty cakes and refreshing beverages.

Our coffee morning event was inspired by Lauren Mann the founder of Farrow Friends and her championing of companionship for those who are struggling with loneliness and isolation.

Recently Lauren won a competition to design a limited edition tin for Nescafé in support of the princes trust. Speaking of her winning design 'The Silver Lining' Lauren said 'I want my design to encourage us to connect with those who may be lonely and be the silver lining to their day'

 A contingent of our residents and colleagues ventured to The Crown Hotel Boroughbridge for a delightful Fish Friday feast at our local eatery! 

The classic British tradition of fish and chips is truly unparalleled. We are immensely grateful to the Crown Hotel for their warm reception and hospitality. It was a wonderful experience for our residents.

Arias filled the air at Boroughbridge Manor Care Home in Boroughbridge, where residents enthusiastically participated in World Opera Day

Staff and residents at Boroughbridge Manor were delighted to welcome the wonderful Metso-Soprano, Emma Carrington!

Emma an accomplished soloist performer made her Royal Opera House debut playing the Valkyrie Rossweisse (Die Walküre) in Keith Warner’s production of Wagner’s Ring Cycle conducted by Antonio Pappano in Autumn 2018 as one of her many stage accomplishments.

 

Boroughbridge Manor have been having fantastic fun hiding ghosts and pumpkins all over the Boroughbridge High Street for local children to find.  The staff and residents decided to challenge local children to find 6 ghosts and 6 pumpkins that are hiding in different shops and businesses along the town’s high street. 

Children have to write down the number of each pumpkin and ghost and where they have been found in order to take part in the Halloween Hunt and will be rewarded with sweet treats by the home.

We spotted the bright blue skies and seized the opportunity to head for a walk into town! 

Joy couldn’t believe it was the beginning of October, with the warmth from the sunshine beaming down on us as we stopped off for a coffee. We spent time looking through shop windows  and enjoyed seeing what the town of Boroughbridge had to offer.
