We enjoyed making some bird feeders. We used lard and empty toilet rolls, putting the lard on the cardboard and then rolling them in the bird feed. We will hang them up around the garden to bring in some beautiful birds to Riversway. We had tea and cakes after our hard day’s work.

Saturday 10th
Meadow View in Alcester
We received this outstanding review on carehome.co.uk! A massive well done to the incredible staff team 👏👏
“Our mum is now the longest resident that Meadow View have had (8 years) and my family and I are absolutely convinced that this is because of the most amazing care and compassion that she receives on a daily basis.
We cannot thank the manager and her team enough for all that they have done and are still doing for Mum during the different stages of dementia.
We have total peace of mind knowing Mum is safe and being looked after so well and the manager and her team now feel like family to us all.
If you do have an opportunity to have a loved one cared for in this home, you will certainly feel the same I’m sure.”
