Dementia UK Charity Ball
We had a wonderful day fundraising for Dementia UK Charity. We hosted a lively event with an incredible turnout, and the homemade cakes prepared by our chef were especially popular.
I’m thrilled that everyone had a great time. Thanks to everyone's generosity, we successfully raised £130.00 to support Dementia UK.
100th Birthday Celebrations!
Worplesdon View Care Home resident Margaret celebrated her 100th birthday surrounded by family and friends in a truly memorable occasion. A highlight of the day was receiving a birthday card from His Majesty the King—an incredible honour for such a special milestone.
The celebration was filled with joy, laughter, and cherished memories. It was a privilege to share this moment with Margaret and her loved ones. Events like these highlight the warmth and sense of community that make Worplesdon View such a special place to call home.
