It’s that time of year again and unfortunately this is the second year we are unable to be together for bonfire night. A number of our neighbours have approached the home and asked if we would consider not letting fireworks off because it distresses their pets. We have agreed and instead of purchasing fireworks we will be making a £500.00 donation to Bolton Armed Forces Centre to support their work with Veterans and their families which would normally have been spent of fireworks.
That said, Julie (our activities coordinator) has been busy with the residents (and staff) this afternoon doing everything “Bonfire Night”, doing such things as making firework jewellery out of glow sticks, bonfire night quiz’s and the residents have also enjoyed parkin and black peas!!
