Activities at Westvale House Care Home

Blue Light Breakfast To Go!

We want to look after those who look after us, and what better way than making sure our emergency services are food fuelled and ready to go!

We visited our local stations including, Warrington Fire Station to deliver 'Barchester Breakfast Baps' for the crew's to enjoy.

These were the wishes of our Residents who want to support our local community.

All Emergency Services and Blue Light Professionals are welcome to visit Westvale House anytime for a brew and piece of cake - it's completely FREE!

We love spending time in our garden, it is a beautiful environment where Residents and their families can sit, relax and enjoy a variety of exciting gardening activities.

This week, family and friends of Westvale House made the most of the sunshine entertaining their relatives by giving our garden some well deserved TLC.  A few of us even enjoyed a tipple of wine.

We are looking forward to the summer days ahead and more time outside in the fresh air.

Celebrating Dementia Action Week at our care home was truly special.

Our Residents and teams came together for a heart-warming reminiscing activity to share memories and lovely stories.

Thanks to the generous support of Cadbury, we received a delightful surprise – memory bar boxes filled with Dairy Milk bars wrapped in designs reflecting Cadbury rich 200-year history.

We all had a great time while enjoyed some delicious sweet treats.

Residents and staff gained some inspiration from watching the famous Dirty Dancing movie, and decided to recreate the iconic wig scene in the hope of bagging themselves their very own Patrick Swayze! 

General Manager, Jackie Bray was keen to get in on the action and we think red is definitely her colour!

Joy and laughter filled the air as everyone reacted to the new looks of Residents and staff around the home.

What a wonderful day we had at Westvale House celebrating St Patrick's Day!

We had Irish music playing throughout the lounge whilst our lovely residents sang along. We decorated the home in green and gold to mark the occasion, and everyone was in full attire with head boppers and glasses bringing lots of laughter and joy! Our residents shared their knowledge with a quiz and listened to poems from the Emerald Isle.

The festivities continued in the dining room where our hospitality team had made a delicious traditional Irish meal including freshly baked Guinness cake. Everyone had such a wonderful time.

As we're starting to see peeks of Spring, we wanted to get some flowers up and running, ready for planting when the weather gets a tad warmer!

Some of our ladies got their green fingers at the ready, and planted some bulbs and seeds into pots to get them started. This included some peonies, ranunculus, and some anenomes! Elsie in particular was excited for gardening weather to be back, and can't wait to plant even more outside her bedroom window in our lovely gardens.
