The standard, as per usual, was superb in both our Christmas competitions this year. Our residents and their activity teams really pulled out all the stops to make this a really special Christmas, despite not being able to spend it with their loved ones. However, there must be winners and we would like to announce that Housman Court won the Decoration Competition and Signature House the Cake Competition. Congratulations to both of them and to everyone who participated.
Our very talented maintenance officer, Garth, has redecorated the lounge and built some rather snazzy bookcases. Well done Garth! Click on the Read More button to see some photos.

At Amica Care Trust, we will soon be allowing nominated visitors to meet safely and comfortably with their loved ones via specially designed ‘Visitor Pods’. Whilst we have encouraged garden visits, window visits and specially arranged visits when one of our residents has been unwell, this improves opportunities for families of our residents.
One of our residents said “I can’t wait to see my son again, especially so near to Christmas. It will be wonderful”

Many Congratulations to Housman Court Care Home in Bromsgrove on Winning this year's Christmas Decoration Competition! Well done to all the homes, and to their Activity Teams who helped our residents create such beautiful, imaginative decorations for their homes
The residents have been busy preparing their homes for Christmas Day. Along with the traditional baubles, the residents have been busy making their own decorations - helped by our amazing Amica Care Trust Activity Teams.
The residents have also helped to bake their own Christmas Cakes - a piece of which will be saved for the 'Taste Committee' (aka Head Office Staff), who will pronounce the winner in when restrictions are lifted.
Our judges had a wonderful few days visiting all the homes and were delighted by the stunning Christmas displays. They were also treated to a Nativity play, starring the residents, and sang along to the carols.
