A FAMILY ADVENTURE AT THE FALKIRK WHEEL-22nd SEPTEMBER 2025

On 22nd September, our residents has a wonderful day out with their families! Supported by our Activities Team, they visited the Falkirk Wheel and enjoyed a scenic barge trip together.

Rojane and Marion brought along their sons, Hugh was joined by his daughter, and Mary came with our team, and her loyal stuffed dog, who never left her side! The sun was shining, picnic lunches were enjoyed by all, and laughter filled the air.

It was a truly special day, seeing our residents connect with their loved ones, make happy memories and simply enjoy each other’s company. Moments like these remind us why creating meaningful experiences for our residents is at the heart of everything we do.[vc_single_image image=”37428″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”37429″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][vc_single_image image=”37427″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”]
