✨ We’re recruiting Care Workers at Bransdale ✨

Looking for a rewarding role where you can really get to know the people you support?

Bransdale is an Extra Care scheme, which means residents live independently in their own apartments while receiving support when needed. It’s different from a care home, and unlike traditional home care, staff are based in one location — no driving from call to call.

Support can include personal care, wellbeing checks, helping with daily living, or simply providing a friendly social call and companionship ☕💬

If you’re caring, reliable, and want to make a genuine difference in people’s lives, we’d love to hear from you.

🌷A Huge Thank You from Bransdale View 🌷

At the beginning of February, we unexpectedly found ourselves without our usual bistro service. This was a challenging time, particularly as many of our residents rely on this provision day-to-day.

We were keen to ensure that residents continued to enjoy good food and social mealtimes, so we reached out to local cafés, restaurants, and food providers—and what followed truly showed the strength and kindness of our community 💛

We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to the following amazing local businesses who stepped in to help:

🥧 Nesfield & Piercy Family Butchers – for providing pies tailored to each resident’s choice
🍽️ The Vault, Pickering – for delivering delicious hot Sunday dinners over several weeks
🥣 The Cafe on the Square – for supplying homemade tasty soup and a roll each week
🥪 Cornercopia – for delivering a lovely weekly Ploughman’s lunch
🐟 Chippy's Mobile Fish & Chips – for bringing the best fish and chips to us each week

Your kindness and generosity made a real difference, and we are so grateful for your support

We would also like to say a huge thank you to our wonderful residents for their patience, understanding, and kindness throughout this unexpected period. Your positivity has meant so much to us all.

✨ We’re pleased to say that this chapter is now behind us, and things are looking very positive for the future at Bransdale View. ✨

And finally, a reminder that Chippy's Mobile Fish & Chips will continue to visit every Friday going forward 🎉🐟🍟

Thank you again to everyone who supported us—we couldn’t have done it without you.

🌼 March Round-Up at Bransdale View🌼

March has been a wonderfully busy and heartwarming month here at our extra care scheme, and we wanted to share a little look back at some of the lovely moments we didn’t get a chance to post at the time 💛

We were delighted to welcome the children from Little Years Nursery, who joined us for a creative arts and crafts session. There was lots of laughter, colour, and special moments shared between generations – something we always cherish 🎨

We also had an exciting surprise as Greg James passed through Helmsley during his incredible cycling challenge for Red Nose Day 🚴‍♂️ It was amazing to be part of such an inspiring event!

A very special highlight was celebrating John’s 90th birthday 🥳 We marked the occasion in style with a party, delicious cake, and a glass (or two!) of Prosecco – a fantastic afternoon enjoyed by all. Happy 90th, John! 🎂🥂

To round off the month, we were joined by the Beavers and Scouts for a lovely evening of flower arranging. It was a joy to see everyone working together, getting creative, and sharing smiles 🌸

A big thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make March so memorable. We love bringing our community together ❤️
