When the sun came out, our wonderful residents headed straight into the garden to make the most of the gorgeous weather.
For many of our residents, gardening is something they’ve enjoyed for years, so getting outside to plant flowers and work with the soil brings back lots of happy memories. It’s also a great way to keep active, enjoy some fresh air and spend time together doing something meaningful so it was really lovely to see everyone get stuck in.
Afterwards, we cooled off with ice lollies and took some time to admire all the hard work that had gone into the garden.
Sometimes the simplest afternoons turn out to be the best ones. Here are just a few of our favourite moments captured from the afternoon:

At Lansdowne Care Home, we always look for ways to make the most of the lovely spaces around us and incorporate them into daily life. Whether it’s gardening, enjoying a sunny afternoon outdoors or simply spending time in the fresh air, activities are often built around the home’s surroundings to help residents stay connected to familiar interests and everyday routines.
