Go for Gold!

Go for Gold: Our Clients Shine in 70s Style!
Our clients had a fantastic time participating in the Go for Gold activity, joining fellow residents from other care homes in a joyful celebration.
This year’s theme, Music Through the Decades: 40s to 80s, was a big hit—especially the vibrant sounds of the 70s, which our team proudly represented!
They brought the spirit of the decade to life with:

  • ✨ Energetic dance moves
  • 🎨 Handmade banners and creative badges
  • 🕺 Lots of laughter, music, and movement

Everyone went home with medals, certificates, and wonderful memories.

What an incredible day it was!

Arts and Crafts at St Columbas

✨ Our clients are truly thriving during arts and crafts sessions. It’s not about the end result—it’s about the joy of the journey. These creative moments give them space to express who they are, build confidence, and embrace their own creativity. Even spontaneous colouring has sparked laughter and a refreshing sense of freedom.

Indian Day at St Columbas

On Tuesday 25th March we had an Indian Fest here at St. Columba’s.

Many of us were dressed in Kurta’s and Sari’s to make the experience even more memorable, with Indian dancing being displayed with us all trying to follow and join in.

We were then treated to delicious food made by our lovely Indian cooks for the day. On offer were various traditional dishes from starters to mains, side dishes and puddings.

Residents and staff said it was the best Indian food they had tasted.

 

The day was an amazing success, and we hope to have another one later in the year.
