Eastleigh Care Centre

Forthcoming Events

AS I write this article I am looking out at all the lovely plants in our Eastleigh garden. These were bought with some of the money raised at our May Fayre which, once again, turned out to be most successful. This was due in no small way to yourselves who made the effort to come along to support us. Many thanks for that.

In our garden we now have two new beautiful garden seats gifted by Alec Williamson in memory of his wife, Betty, a resident at Eastleigh for around 18 months. We are much indebted to Alec for this kind gesture and the residents and their relatives are enjoying the comfort they provide.

Our next event at Eastleigh will be a BBQ on Saturday, 4 September in the grounds of the home. We had a most successful one last year so hopefully this year will be a repeat.

A Quiz Night is proposed to be held on Friday 1st October and our popular Silent Auction on Friday, 12 November. There will be posters advertising these events distributed throughout the village nearer the time.

Throughout the Autumn season I am hoping to hold a number of Traditional Afternoon Teas to which members of the community will be invited to attend. I have been on the look out for Bone China Tea Sets, Cake Plates, Sugar Tongs etc. If you have any such items gathering dust and would wish to part with them please contact me at the home.

I am also rebuilding memorabilia for a Reminiscence Room. Once again, if you can help, please contact me.
