Residents at Orchid Villa (Grosvenor Villas, Chester) had fun baking small cake balls. They put them on sticks, dipped them in chocolate, and added toppings of their choice—what a yummy treat.

Grosvenor Villas residents had a most welcomed visit from the Ice Cream Van organised by Cedar Care. Due to the scorching weather, it all went down really well for staff and residents, and we served over a hundred portions of ice cream. Hearing and seeing the ice cream van invoked many memories for the residents. The staff listened to several stories of residents’ summer holidays and beach trips, and one resident shared his memory of eating the ice cream leftovers from his parents’ shop at the end of every day! Everybody enjoyed their time outside with yummy ice creams. The staff also offered treats to the residents in their bedrooms.

At Grosvenor Villas, the Residents, staff, relatives and friends have enjoyed the Queen Jubilee weekend together. Residents and staff members created unique decorations to set a superb celebration atmosphere. Many visitors of all ages arrived, but the Orchid Villa staff were prepared with lots of garden games, a photo shoot with The Queen and her guards, a mini raffle, music and some delicious food. They also planted a traditional Plum Tree in the garden to commemorate The Platinum Jubilee of Her Majesty The Queen. The weather worked out perfectly, and everybody had a blast.
