Across our houses, we are privileged to hear some truly wonderful stories from our residents about their lives.

Recently, Barbara, a resident at Kift Lodge shared a touching poem written by her husband, "Remember the Blessings." Through heartfelt words, the poem reflects on their life together, the challenges they faced, the joys they shared, and the gratitude he felt for the love that carried them through the years.

The poem is a beautiful reminder that even during difficult times, it is often the love of our families and cherished moments that remain closest to our hearts - and it's a true reflection of how much life can change over the years.

Thank you, Barbara, for sharing this piece of your family's history with us. ❀️

"I remember the blessings, our home and our love, that we shared them together, I thank God above."

Good food has the power to do so much more than just satisfy hunger. πŸ’š

At Abbeyfield Bristol & Keynsham, we've been exploring how simple changes to everyday meals can help our residents stay strong, healthy, and independent for longer.

Through our Food & Nutrition Project, our brilliant cooks have been learning more about the benefits of nutrient-rich ingredients, from protein-packed breakfasts and whole foods to immunity-boosting fruits and homemade stocks.

It's all about making every meal as nourishing as it is delicious, because eating well should help us feel our best at every age.

Recently residents, staff, volunteers, family and friends came together at Kift Lodge, in Hanham, to continue our 60th Anniversary celebrations πŸŽ‰β˜€οΈ

With glorious sunshine, everyone enjoyed delicious food made by our fantastic cooks and raised a glass of refreshing Pimm's to mark this special milestone. 🍹

The entertainment was a real highlight, with the incredibly talented Frankie Johns, who appeared on Britain's Got Talent, keeping everyone singing along and dancing the afternoon away. 🎀🎢

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make the celebration so memorable. As we look back on 60 years of supporting older people across Bristol and Keynsham, we're proud of all we've achieved together and excited for the years ahead.

Here's to friendship, community and the next 60 years! ❀️

Did you know that Abbeyfield Bristol & Keynsham's story began 60 years ago?

Our very first house opened at 5 Hughenden Road, Clifton, marking the start of a commitment to providing companionship, support and a welcoming home for older people across Bristol.

Each new house represented more than just a building. It created a place where people later in life could enjoy independence, friendship, security and a true sense of belonging.

As we celebrate our heritage, we'd like to thank everyone who has been part of our journey over the decades, including residents, staff, volunteers, supporters and the wider community. Together, you've helped shape Abbeyfield Bristol & Keynsham into the organisation it is today. πŸ’š

Last week the residents at Abbeyfield House Redland, picked up their pencils to take part in a relaxed and creative drawing session while sipping refreshing gin and tonics! 🎨🍸

There was plenty of laughter, great conversation, and some fantastic artwork produced along the way.

It's always lovely to see everyone coming together to try something new, express their creativity, and enjoy each other's company. A perfect way to spend the afternoon! πŸ’™

Don't leave it too late to make the move.

Many people wait until day-to-day living becomes difficult before considering supported living, but moving earlier can make all the difference to your independence, wellbeing and quality of life.

At Abbeyfield Bristol & Keynsham, supported living offers so much more than just practical support. Residents enjoy:

βœ… Your own private space and independence
βœ… Delicious daily home-cooked meals
βœ… A welcoming community and companionship
βœ… Reduced worries about household maintenance
βœ… A safe and secure environment
βœ… More time to enjoy hobbies, friends and family

Making the move before you need more support allows you to settle in, build friendships and truly enjoy everything community living has to offer.

If you've been thinking about your future housing options, now could be the perfect time to start the conversation.
