Residents love this new large scale tablet, they can use it for many things, such as face to face communication with loved ones outside the home. Yes - that is a jigsaw puzzle with pieces being moved around to fit! It can be wheeled around the home for individual or group activities. It is loaded with simple games, brain training apps and memory apps along with a host of enjoyable games and puzzles. Additional downloads and apps can be added to enhance enjoyment.

A Poem by one of our Residents
Crelake House
Love is in the air
all around
Love is a kind word
a warm greeting
and writing on the mirrors
sometimes
I find in my frailty
that love seems to be an option
It is not
Love is mandatory
a command
a must
Love is in the air
little ripples of love
lift me up
yes love is
a must
So thank you

This visit was so much fun, everyone was thrilled to see JayJay and he was so well behaved. The team from the Ivybridge Donkey Sanctuary were so patience when JayJay decided he might like to stay rather than get into the trailer!
September
A selection of local cheeses which our Residents fancied trying, we served them with savoury biscuits, chutney and artisan locally made breads.
After discussions about how Residents used to visit the cinema every week. We decided to recreate a movie matinee with popcorn. Audrey Hepburn is a favourite so we watched Sabrina complete with Mocktails!
Chris the Singing Gardener is extremely popular with our Residents and their families.
Our conservatory is a fabulous place for group activities or for private space for residents to entertain family or friends.

August 2016
Our newly refurbished dining room. We replaced all the tables and chairs with new ones, painted the walls and ceilings, replaced the old lights with brighter ones, added new pictures and fitted a new carpet.
The new chairs have glides on the bottom. This makes it easier for the staff to move them with seated residents, who cannot help themselves. Before, it was hard work!
The staff were eager to do the decorating themselves and did all the painting (one had never painted before).
