Meigle Country House had an afternoon tea party at Halloween. Lots of residents got dressed up for the occasion and enjoyed the various activities on the day.

This was our first church service held at Meigle. This was requested by the residents and so the local minister has kindly offered to conduct this service monthly.

We are very fortunate to have the local children coming from the Primary school to various activities with us. Here is a picture of when we did a Spring blossom gratitude tree. We wrote on each ‘leaf’ something that we are grateful for. This ranged from ‘my cat’ to ‘my family’ to ‘living at Meigle Country House’. It is wonderful that there is so much to be thankful for.

We were delighted to host the Dementia UK ‘Time for a cuppa’ fundraiser recently. Thank you to all who attended and gave generously to make the event so special. We enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea with delicious home baking.

We love a song and a dance at Meigle! There are some songs that you can’t help but sign along to and get up and dance… Here’s one of our favourites ‘Love is in the air’.

We were delighted to have the Squirrels from the 61st Glamis Scout Group to visit us recently. We had a lovely chat with them and they sung us a song. We can’t wait to welcome them back later this year!
