Westwood House Care Home – Celebrating Community Spirit

Westwood House Care Home – Celebrating Community Spirit

One of our amazing care home members at Westwood House Care Home has been busy spreading joy! They donated some blankets to the local Dogs Trust for the lovely furry friends, for over winter! Residents loved it and are planning the next visit to donate some more items over the coming months. This was so meaningful for one resident, Christine, as she loves dogs and misses seeing her dogs daily.

They even had alpacas in and had a Fiesta Party. The kitchen cooked some lovely snacks and families also enjoyed spending the day with their loved ones! The home wished that they could have kept the alpacas.

To top it off, they arranged a lovely visit to the Link Nursery. The children gifted Westwood House with a homemade gift, which is now hanging in the house’s lounge![vc_single_image image=”38069″ img_size=”full”][vc_single_image image=”38068″ img_size=”full”]
