Gibraltar Nursing Home

Our Halloween celebrations went down a treat! There was dressing up for those who wanted to (our team members really got into the spirit👻), games of toss the hoop on the witch's hat, lots of tasty party food from our kitchen and spooky music and dancing.💃 #monmouthcarehome

We wore it pink! 🩷🎀💓There was plenty of pink around on Friday as family members and team members joined in with Wear It Pink Day in support of Breast Cancer Now. #monmouthcarehome #nursinghomemonmmouth #walescarehome #carehomesmonmouth

These flowers showed up outside our front door earlier this week. We're not sure who or where they came from, but they are absolutely beautiful ❤🪻🌷 #monmouthcarehome #nursinghomemonmmouth #walescarehome #carehomesmonmouth

Our Sunshine & Soil Gardening Club has been hard at work over the last few months, taking on all sorts of projects! 🌿🌷🪻 #monmouthcarehome #nursinghomemonmmouth #walescarehome #carehomesmonmouth

Team members at Gibraltar Nursing Home recently put their fitness to the test as they worked together to complete a virtual race to raise money for local charity Music for Memories. To read the story, visit: gibraltarnursinghome.com/gib… #monmouthcarehome #southwales #socialcare

Our Silver Song Birds are proudly wearing their new choir T-shirts as Christmas rehearsals get underway! Elsewhere, there's been knitting, cake, funky sunglasses and teddy bear cuddles. Just everyday life continuing, with everyone doing what they love! #walescarehome

We're still thinking about when Hazelnut-Ella came to visit us 🥹💛 Many of our family members have a deep connection with animals, having grown up with pets or shared much of their lives with them. #monmouthcarehome #nursinghomemonmmouth #walescarehome #carehomesmonmouth

We recently enjoyed enjoyed a coffee tasting afternoon in our Pillars Restaurant! ☕️ Read more here: gibraltarnursinghome.com/cof… #monmouthcarehome #nursinghomemonmmouth #walescarehome #carehomesmonmouth

We hosted a coffee tasting afternoon! ☕🍰Family members who wanted to join in came on down to Pillars Restaurant, where we had a few different coffees to choose from. #monmouthcarehome #nursinghomemonmmouth #walescarehome #carehomesmonmouth

And we are off to a flying start!! 🏃‍♀️🚣🚴‍♂️ Our virtual race was opened by the wonderful team at Music for Memories, our chosen charity for this fundraiser. Since Monday, we've covered over 120 miles with our gym equipment 💪 #monmouthcarehome #nursinghomemonmmouth #walescarehome

Who says growing up means you can’t still enjoy a bit of fancy dress? Moments like this give people a chance to connect with those around them, sharing a joke, reacting to each other and simply enjoying being part of the moment together. #monmouthcarehome #nursinghomemonmmouth

🫖☕️ We ran an afternoon tea last month for Breast Cancer Awareness and played a little game where we picked which teacup hamper we liked the most. Verity drew the winning name and Rebecca was looking very happy with her win ❤ #monmouthcarehome #breastcancerawareness

Race for Charity at Gibraltar Nursing Home! From 5th–9th October, we’re taking on a 256.9-mile challenge to raise money for Music for Memories. #monmouthcarehome #nursinghomemonmmouth #walescarehome #charityevent

Margaret, Anthony and Lindsay each settled into their own creative projects, choosing colours and working at their own pace. Sometimes an afternoon doesn’t need much more than a table, something to make and the time to become completely absorbed in it. 🖌🎨 #monmouthcarehome

Our family member's artwork was made into a feature wall in our Pillars' restaurant a little while ago. ❤ It's the little touches like these that can make a house feel like home. #monmouthcarehome #nursinghomemonmmouth #walescarehome #carehomesmonmouth

Our Silver Song Bird Choir rehearsals have become one of the highlights of our week! It's lovely to come together and practice our songs, dressed for the occasion (or in our dressing gowns if we prefer!) It's not about how we sound, but how we feel as we sing 🥰🎶 #walescarehome

We've started a baking club! The Dough Nuts, as they have named themselves, had their first bake off this week and thought it was only right to make mini doughnuts. To read more, visit: gibraltarnursinghome.com/the… #monmouthcarehome #nursinghomemonmmouth

We replanted some of the pots out front and enjoyed a few games of bingo. Jason decided he wanted to be in charge for the day and sat by the computer, Margaret enjoyed crafting some handmade cards. And of course, there's always time for a cuddle! 🥰 #monmouthcarehome

Music has the power to evoke so many emotions. Joy, thoughtfulness, nostalgia. In seconds we can be transported to a different place, another time. If you've not read the story about our partnership with Music for Memories charity, please give it a read on our News & Blogs page!
