MISSION CHRISTMAS

A local Radio channel supports challenged children in the area at Christmas. We collect Christmas presents on their behalf for children in all age groups to make them a little happy and show them Father Christmas did not forget them.

We believed a relatively large box would be big enough to hold all the donations, but see yourself, it has already flown over, and more presents arrive every day.

Thank you for all your help!

OCTOBER 2018 – HIGH FLYER

Registered Nurse flies high

Registered Nurse Mary Preethi George, from Birchy Hill Care Home, was awarded the Highflyer Wing for October 2018.

She is always ready to help, she is a very diligent Nurse and shows good attention to detail, also not forgetting, she is very supportive to the Residents, Staff and the Company.

Congratulations, Preethi, well done!

CHILDREN IN NEED – PARTY

With their yearly appeal the BBC has now raised over £1bn since it began the annual fundraiser in 1980. It comes after a record-breaking £50.6m which was donated during Friday’s programme. The total raised surpassed 2017’s record of £50.1m.

We at Birchy Hill were so very much inspired by the idea to pay our own little tribute that we organised a Charity Party. Retro Rita entertained the Residents with her songs from the 60s.

Children’s toys and clothes were sold, cupcakes and a Pudsey Bear Cake offered to raise some money to donate to Children in Need.

A very big Thank You to all who helped with their donation!
