EASTLEIGH CARE CENTRE

CAN YOU believe we are heading for winter? After such a lovely summer and a very peasant start to autumn, it’s hard to imagine we are approaching the worst time of the year for the elderly. However this will certainly NOT be the case for the residents of Eastleigh Care Centre. Excitement and anticipation are the buzz words as we all prepare for the Festive Season. Already plans are afoot for our party, visits to the Pantomime and trips to see the Christmas lights.

We held a successful Cheese and Wine Party in September followed by our Autumn Quiz in October. On this occasion we were joined by some pupils from Primary 7 at Culter School . They were a great credit to their parents, their school and themselves. Well done, boys and girls.

Our next fund raising event is our Silent Auction to he held in the Care Centre on Friday 14 November at 7pm. Hopefully we will have received items for sale from friends before this.

On behalf of staff and residents at Eastleigh I would like to thank you again for your continued support and wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
