🌺 Crafting for our Remembrance Tea Dance🌺

Our residents have been busy getting creative, making beautiful poppy crafts to use as table displays and decorations for our upcoming Remembrance Tea Dance.

There has been lots of discussion, sharing of ideas and reminiscing along the way, as well as plenty of encouragement and confidence-building. It's lovely to see everyone getting involved, having a go and taking pride in what they've created.

Each poppy is a little reminder of the importance of remembering and coming together as a community. ❤️

We can't wait to see all the decorations come together on the day!

🌺 Join us for our Remembrance Tea Dance!

🎲 A Little Friendly Competition at Edwardstow!🧩

There’s nothing quite like getting together for a bit of fun! Our residents enjoyed a lovely tabletop games session, with plenty of different activities to choose from.

From a few rounds of Snakes and Ladders, some colourful creativity with colouring, to piecing together jigsaws and testing our coordination with a chopstick pick-up challenge! 🥢

There was something for everyone, with lots of concentration, a little friendly competition and, most importantly, plenty of smiles and laughter along the way.

It's all about enjoying time together, keeping our minds active and making the most of the little moments. ❤️

👻 Trick or Treat at Edwardstow Court! 🎃

There were plenty of laughs during our Halloween Trick or Treat challenge!

Our residents had to choose a cup at random, never quite knowing whether they were going to get a sweet treat or a spooky surprise! 🍬

Some cups contained delicious goodies, while others held a rather unexpected trick… think gooey porridge, cold spaghetti and wobbly jelly! 😂

There were lots of giggles, funny reactions and a few surprises along the way!

A little Halloween fun, a bit of mischief and plenty of laughter! Just how we like it at Edwardstow! 🧡👻

💭 What did you want to be when you grew up, and what advice would you give your younger self?

At a recent coffee morning at Edwardstow Court, we put these two questions to our residents, visitors, families and friends.

It was lovely to hear about childhood dreams, the jobs people went on to do, the paths life took them on and, with the benefit of hindsight, the words of wisdom they'd share with their younger selves. ❤️

From reminiscing about the past to sharing a little life advice, there were plenty of stories, smiles and thoughtful moments along the way.

🎥 Take a look at our little video to hear what everyone had to say!

Now it's your turn! What did you dream of being when you were younger, and what advice would you give your younger self? We'd love to hear in the comments.

💜 Working Together to Build an Age-Friendly Cotswolds 💜

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us at Edwardstow for the launch of the Dementia and Dementia Carer Support Handbook for the North Cotswolds, as part of the Age Friendly Cotswolds initiative.

It was lovely to bring people together to raise awareness, share knowledge and improve understanding of dementia and the support available to individuals, families and carers across our local community.

A special thank you to Karen Saffarian, Age Friendly Champion for Cotswold Friends, for organising this important event and bringing everyone together to support such a worthwhile initiative. 💜

We were delighted to welcome Cllr Alison Tighe, Stow Town Council’s Age Friendly Ambassador, and Cllr Daryl Corps- County Councillor for Moreton, Stow & The Rissingtons and Cotswold District Councillor for Moreton-in-Marsh.

By working together, sharing resources and building connections, we can help make our communities more inclusive, understanding and supportive places for people living with dementia and those who care for them.

Thank you to everyone involved in helping us continue to build a more dementia-friendly North Cotswolds.

🍂🌺 A Little Autumn Colour at Edwardstow 🌺🍂

Our residents have been getting creative with some beautiful stained-glass window art, celebrating the colours of autumn and creating our own poppies in preparation for Remembrance Day. ❤️

From the rich reds, oranges and golden hues of autumn leaves to the striking red poppies, our windows are becoming little works of art, bringing colour, creativity and a touch of seasonal beauty to Edwardstow.

Creative activities like these offer a wonderful opportunity to express ourselves, share memories and enjoy a sense of achievement together. 🍁🎨

We think they look lovely! What do you think? ❤️
