Visit of the Lambs

We had a visit from some lambs last week. They were very well behaved, and everybody wanted a cuddle!

Our residents and staff absolutely loved them!

Pancake Day at Drumdarroch

Our lovely residents made pancakes on Pancake Day (with a little help from Linda, Activities Co-Ordinator!)

They went down very well with a cup of tea.

Valentine’s Day

We celebrated Valentine’s at Drumdarroch with a ‘wear something red’ day.

We also had entertainment from the Singing Bobby.

Love was in the air with cards and roses everywhere!

Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year celebrations were colourful at Drumdarroch with our Dining Room Dragon on display.

He really needs a proper name!

A Chinese themed lunch was served which included Sweet and Sour Pork with noodles, Chicken Curry with

Rice, Sweet & Sour Chicken, Spring Rolls, Jelly and Ice cream and Fortune Cookies.

Burns Day

We celebrated Burns Day in style with traditional haggis, neeps & tatties.

Our Volunteer, Ian, addressed the haggis with much enthusiasm after it was piped into the dining room.

January dress down day

January’s dress down day was National Dress themed.
As you can see from our photos, we had a very colourful day!

Christmas Raffle raised £1300

Our Christmas raffle and lucky squares held in December raised a huge £1300!!

This was a fantastic fund raiser for Drumdarroch, only made possible by the generosity of local businesses, relatives of our residents, residents of Insch and staff who donated to the event. We had some amazing prizes!

Also, thanks to Angie, who did an amazing job of contacting local businesses for us. Thanks to all who bought tickets and congratulations to all the winners!

Money raised will be used for activities/treats/entertainment for our residents.
