Celebrating Easter with eggs, entertainment and excitementFor Easter at the Beeches care home, on Tameside, they have enjoyed a variety of different activities to get into the spirit. 

For virtual entertainment regular singer Deborah sang songs to get everyone in the mood for spring. Residents also enjoyed an online Easter church service from St John’s church. The Residents enjoyed listening to readings, prayers and singing hymns related to Easter. 

Ann, a Resident at the Beeches, said, “The service was nice as always.”

Throughout the week Resident have coloured Easter pictures ready for the Easter display around the home. The wellbeing team also spent time doing Easter quizzes for everyone and organising audio Easter stories to listen to.
