Jubilee weekend at Cherry Blossom Care Home

Jubilee weekend cherry blossom

Cherry Blossom Care Home was buzzing earlier this month to celebrate the Platinum Jubilee celebrations!

Over the course of the weekend we had an array of events for our residents, their families and our staff to enjoy.

 

Our residents made the most of the prime-time viewing of the Queen before going on to party as they sat and watched her appearance at Buckingham Palace!

Our team did a great job of putting a wonderful event together for the residents and families: we had live singing, jubilee party food and lots of laughter. The weather just about managed to hold out, but a bit of rain wasn’t going to stop the Cherry Blossom Care Home fun as the marquee meant everyone got to enjoy the celebrations outside!

As usual the Cherry Blossom team never hesitate to get involved and drum up some fun and laughter in the care home. Throughout the Jubilee weekend, various members of the royal family could be spotted throughout the home!

As with all these events, a massive thank you goes out to the wonderful team at the care home. Without them, these events wouldn’t be possible, and we’re so grateful for the fun and liveliness they create!

Of course, a big thank you also goes out to the Cherry Blossom chefs for always creating culinary delights that everyone enjoys – it wouldn’t be a Cherry Blossom party without delicious cake!

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.

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.
