Life at Magnolia Court Care Home

Out and About to RAF Museum

Residents from Magnolia Court took off and had a very interesting trip to The Royal Air Force Museum. 

Seeing the aircraft of Second World War, especially Battle of Britain' s fighter aircraft - the Hawker Hurricane, Supermarine Spitfire and Messerschmitt - brought back memories for our residents.

We all had a great time and agreed that "A visit to a museum is a search for beauty, truth and meaning in our lives."

Wellness through Walking

A saunter, a bimble, a mosey,
Makes your cheeks so rosey!

Wind through my hair,
Not a care!

Daffodils smiling, fields of green
Simple beauty in everything seen!

The pleasure of a stroll
Honours my soul!

Art Exhibition at Magnolia Court

Our community have enjoyed looking at the amazing art created by one of our incredibly talented residents, Gerald, along with his carer Katie.

Merry Christmas from Magnolia Court

On Christmas day, residents at Magnolia Court woke up to a visit from Santa who brought lots of lovely gifts for everyone! A truly magical Christmas morning.

To all of our family, friends, community and people we have yet to meet, all the residents & staff here at Magnolia Court like to wish you a very MERRY CHRISTMAS, wherever in the world you may be!

Best of luck Bill!

We have mentioned on previous occasions how our Resident Bill has reached the finals of the Barchester Healthcare awards as the divisional winner of the 'Resident Ambassador of the Year category. Well, guess who now has his very own banner?! Here he is folks, enjoying every moment! The banner will stand proudly in our Reception for the foreseeable future - who knows, may be it will be replaced with the overall champion's banner? Best of luck, Bill!

Pet Therapy

Look who came to visit us today at Magnolia Court! Dave the Dalmatian who is just 3 months old. All the residents had great fun watching him run around and of course we got lots of cuddles too! Thank you Performing Pets for coming to see us.
