Summer Fete Fun at St Georges

Summer Fete Fun at St Georges at home

What a fantastic day at St Georges with everyone so enjoying the summer fete.

Full House at St Georges

The home was packed and what a pleasure to see all ages coming together for a traditional fete. Children of all ages loved the hook a duck and sweet bags! The party atmosphere didn’t stop when the fete finished with the live singer continuing to entertain residents.

Supporting Local Charities

The local PCSOs from Avon and Somerset Police came along to chat to visitors and residents. St Georges are keen to support local charities and this year held the tombola in aid of Weston

Hospicecare which raised an amazing £80. There were also stalls from Worle Lions Club and Aishah’s Food Charity who raised £79.75 selling food at the fete which will go towards their work in Weston-Super-Mare providing hot meals for those in need.

Team Work at St Georges

The St George’s stalls raised a fabulous £176 for a special residents’ seaside outing in September. Thank you so much to everyone who donated and helped today and big thanks to Zoe and Louise the home’s fabulous activities team and Jacob from the hospitality team whose delicious home-made cakes sold out and delicious burgers, sausages and salads went down a storm.

 

Another busy day at St Georges!!

Catherine
Sales Manager

Catherine has worked in sales and marketing her whole career, after graduating with a degree in Textile Management she worked in Corporate Workwear for many years. Catherine’s first role in the care sector was working with a disability charity that ran nursing homes and enablement projects for young adults.

Catherine

While her two children were younger, she joined her husband in his estate agency, but was delighted to return to the care sector in 2020 and now cannot imagine doing anything else.

Catherine’s role with Allegra is to support residents and their families as they explore care options. Working with the teams in the individual homes she ensures that during every stage from initial enquiry through to moving in with us every question is answered, and we offer the reassurance needed for the next chapter in our resident’s life. It is important for our residents to remain part of the community in which will have lived for years, often all their lives, so the other part of this role is connecting with local community groups, charities and organisations.

Catherine has said that working for Allegra with their groundbreaking household model means we are offering a home with compassion and care whilst ensuring residents are retaining their independence and quality of life.

Out of work Catherine enjoys baking and gardening The children are older now, but still keep her busy!
