Activities at Thistle Hill Care Home

It was a privilege to join Sheila and her husband Reg as they celebrated 66 years of marriage with their family.

Our sensory room was turned into their party venue for the afternoon.

Our Second Chef Kamil and our hospitality team pulled out all the stops with a beautiful celebratory cake, buffet and bubbly to toast the couple.

Elsewhere in the home residents enjoyed a glass of bubbly and wished them well too.

The lights were down low as our Memory Lane Cafe was transformed into a neon dance floor.

We welclomed back Pete Goldup - The Silent Disco DJ as he hosted another wonderful afternoon of music and fun.

Pete, with his 40 pairs of headphones, projected music far beyond the main lounge areas and all the way into bedrooms, bringing the music and fun to the whole home.

Residents, visitors and colleagues thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

Residents and visitors at Thistle Hill Care Centre enjoyed a fabulous afternoon of music and entertainment by Kim and Dave. 

Wow is the only word to describe their talented and energetic performance.  Residents couldn’t help but sing along and dance the afternoon away.  Some of the residents had alternative words for some of the songs which caused much hilarity.  Who knew there could be so many variations of the song “Daisy Daisy”!

Our residents made their very own soaps, mixing the ingredients, colour, and adding designer perfume. They look and smell amazing. Hazel was so happy with the soaps, she presented one to our General Manager, Mandy!

The excitement didn’t stop there. There was sounds of excitement  around the room when we announced to sell these beautiful bars of soap at our upcoming summer fair.

Residents at the Thistle Hill were proud to celebrate all things Yorkshire on Yorkshire Day, August 1st. As the home proudly hosted a ‘Yorkshire Tea’ tea party as part of its celebrations.

Residents at Thistle Hill celebrated the largest county in the UK by listening to some traditional Yorkshire music, sampling some Yorkshire delicacies such as Yorkshire puddings and ales

The celebrations were not only taking place in the home as the home also gifted our NHS heroes at Harrogate Hospital with a selection of Yorkshire Tea goodies!

Residents and guests enjoyed a fabulous afternoon of music and entertainment by Kim and Dave. Kim and Dave from Halifax performed a selection of summertime and classic sounds including Rock and Roll as well as songs that everyone knew and could sing along with.

Residents sang, danced and clapped the afternoon away with Kim and Dave as the duo sang that final song “Daisy Daisy”.  In fact, the audience had a few variations on the well-known song that produced a lot of laughs at the end!
