On Thursday, 10th April, Northcote Lodge Care Home hosted its annual Daffodil Tea, and what a wonderful day it was!

Blessed with beautiful spring weather, our gardens were filled with laughter, sunshine, and the scent of home bakes. Families, friends, and members of our local community came together to enjoy a morning full of joy and community spirit.

There was something for everyone – from a delicious selection of teas, coffees, and cakes to lively stalls featuring home baking, a tombola, raffle prizes, and talented local handcraft sellers. Our Kids’ Corner was buzzing with little ones enjoying a range of fun activities, with the Easter Egg Hunt being a big hit!

The highlight of the day? Seeing our residents enjoying the company of loved ones, chatting with visitors, and soaking up the cheerful atmosphere.

Thanks to everyone’s generosity, we are thrilled to share that we raised £1,500 for our Residents’ Fund, which will go toward enhancing activities and experiences for those in our care.

A heartfelt thank you to all who donated, volunteered, visited, or supported us in any way – we couldn’t have done it without you. Events like these remind us of the power of community and the joy that comes from simply being together.

Until next year – thank you for making this Daffodil Tea one to remember! 🌼
