The Amber Valley Care Centre residents are having a whale of a time at the moment. They were entertained by Holly Edmunds who is studying music, with flute as her major, and wanted to practice while at the same time entertaining our residents. Holly is pictured here below in the left hand side photograph.
As Christmas approaches, there is the need for Christmas cards and tags as well as decorations. The Care Centre residents who do crafts, with some of the Amber Valley residents, were very busy over the last few weeks making cards and tags, some of which they took to give to family and friends and the rest were sold for funds to buy more crafting materials.
They made little Angels and Father Christmases for the Christmas trees in the Centre. These were made from polystyrene, cardboard and bits of material. Pictured below on the right, Beryl helps Anne to put together her second Angel of the afternoon.
Another project was to use fabric paint to beautify some white cotton cloth. These will be used as place mats at the dining room tables, or in some cases as tray cloths. The patterns painted were flowers, leaves and geometric designs. The picture top left, shows two of our artistic residents busy at work.
