                            The Manager’s Welcome
                     Dear All,
Inside this issue:
                     Another month has passed with a hope to see the end of the
•   Nutrition and    COVID crisis. We were extremely happy to be able to invite you
    Hydration        to the first in a very long time garden party. Hope all attending
    Week             guests enjoyed the live music and photo opportunity with no other
•   Trips            than Mr Darcy.

•   Garden visits    We are very grateful for your support and understanding for the

and more…...         precautions that we continue to implement in order to keep our
                     Home safe.

Art at Your Fingertips

                         Colour can tell you a lot about a
                         work of art. Bright colours can
                         make you feel happy while darker
                         colours can make you feel glum.
                         There are also specific colours
                         that remind us of different
                         emotions.

 Trip
It’s all about outdoors and making the best of the longer summer
days. Our residents ventured to Cirencester to visit Dobbie's Garden
Centre to buy some garden necessitates.

Busy Afternoons in the Garden

  As the weather started to improve we decided to give our garden a
little makeover. New flower pots, new plants and a new coat of paint
                       for our garden furniture.

Outdoors

 Once the garden got beautified we made our rounds admiring the work.

 We played games and enjoyed the weather.

Pride & Prejudice Party
On Wednesday we organised a Pride and Prejudice party. Relatives were invited
to join in the celebrations. The residents made their own fascinators and ties, we
had live music, cream tea and a photo booth with Mr Darcy.

Tutti Frutti Thursday
On Thursday we had some fun with fruit skewers. We started off in the garden

and then were forced by cheeky summer showers to finish our activity inside

Sharing is Caring
On the last day of the hydration and nutrition awareness week we produced bookmarks
for the local primary school children with suggestions of healthy snacks.

  Father’s Day
Covid 19 unfortunately put a hold on many of the anticipated sport events in the last
months. Supporters were not able to see their favourite teams playing live. However
nothing is impossible. The residents of Ridgeway Rise were in for a treat this Father’s
Day. If they couldn’t go to a football match, a football match came to them. Swindon
Supermarine U7’s football team (Josh, Miles, Lucas, Taylan, Jesse, Oakley, Joey and
Reece) offered a demonstration of their amazing skills.

 Smoothies Station
There’s nothing more refreshing on a hot day than freshly made smoothies
delivered straight to your door.
