English National Ballet

We celebrated International Youth Day virtually with English National Ballet’s youth dance company, ENBYouthCo and their Creative Director, Richard Bermange.

We had the opportunity to watch A Comedy in Long-shot, participate in a chair-based creative dance workshop and observe an open rehearsal where Richard and the young dancers created a performance inspired by our childhood memories.

It was a wonderful experience, enjoyed by all.

Raising a glass for Beer Day!

We had a fun-filled day as we raised a glass and tasted top ales in recognition of International Beer Day.

Our residents enjoyed a mini beer festival in the garden and got involved in a variety of interesting activities.

Some of our residents spent time learning about craft brewing and the history of beer, others preferred to join the beer tasting session in the garden and to try beers from all around the world.

It was a wonderful day, enjoyed by all.

Designing club culture with V&A

We had a lovely time joining V&A Dundee curator, Kirsty Hassard, as she introduced us virtually to the history and design of night clubs and the club culture from the 1960s to present day.

We explored the evolution and development of night clubs around the world, from Italy to America, and closer to home, looked at their importance as cultural venues and designed spaces.

This current exhibition celebrates night clubs at a very important moment, as we all look to a brighter future where everyone can come back together, to dance and to enjoy nights out once again.

We all enjoyed the virtual talk.

The future with robots!

We enjoyed a wonderful virtual introduction to the world of robots with V&A Dundee Curator, Kirsty Hassard.

Kirsty talked us through the history of robots and their early beginnings, the presentation traced the fascination of all things wired and wonderful and considered what the future might hold for our relationship with a multitude of mechanical machines.

It was absolutely thrilling to learn what robots can do now and what they might be able to do in the future.

Nail Spa ladies

Residents at Hilderstone Hall have enjoyed having a morning pamper session. The Nail Spa session is always popular. Residents were feeling in high mood choosing summer colours with sparkles! We take pride in helping our residents look and feel their best.

Regular Exercise Classes

Here at Hilderstone Hall we encourage our residents to stay active as part of the homes life enrichment programme. Residents have today enjoyed participating in chair based exercises, incorporating Balloons which was a fun and colourful way to spend the morning. This exercise improves co-ordination and has a sensory benefit. It was safe to say both residents and staff worked up a sweat before settling back to enjoy a refreshing cup of tea!
