🛍️✨ THE ASTLEY VIEW CORNER SHOP IS OFFICIALLY OPEN! ✨🛍️

We’re absolutely delighted to share the exciting news that our brand-new Corner Shop at Astley View Care Home is now open! 🏡💙

This has been a real labour of love, with lots of planning, research and, most importantly, input from our residents going into creating a shop that is useful, accessible and enjoyable for everyone. ❤️

🕑 OPEN DAILY | 2PM–4PM

Our residents, staff and families can pop in and purchase everyday essentials, including:

🍫 Sweets & chocolates
🧴 Toiletries
🧼 Everyday essentials
🎁 Little treats and gifts
…and much more!

🎀 A VERY SPECIAL OPENING 🎀

There was only one person we could think of to officially open the doors — our wonderful resident Shirley, who is our longest-serving resident at Astley View! 🥰

Shirley had the very special honour of cutting the ribbon and declaring our Corner Shop officially OPEN! ✂️🎉

It was such a lovely and meaningful moment, celebrating Shirley’s special place at the heart of our Astley View family. ❤️

📮 AND WE’VE EVEN GOT OUR OWN POSTBOX! 📮

We wanted our shop to be about more than simply buying things, so we’ve also added a postbox outside the shop!

Residents can now write their own letters and cards, pop them into our postbox, and our team will make sure they are posted for them. 💌📮

It’s a lovely way to encourage those important connections with family and friends and keep those traditional everyday routines alive. ❤️

🎶💃 TIME TO CELEBRATE! 💃🎶

And, of course, after all that excitement, it was time to celebrate!

Residents, staff and families came together with our wonderful singer Louis 🎤🎶 for an afternoon of music, singing, dancing and plenty of laughter.

What better way to celebrate our new Corner Shop than surrounded by our Astley View family, enjoying fantastic live music and making more wonderful memories together! 🥰🎶

A huge thank you to everyone who has helped bring this idea to life. From the initial planning and research to choosing what our shop should offer, every detail has been carefully considered with our residents at the heart of it.

We hope the Astley View Corner Shop becomes a much-loved part of everyday life, giving our residents choice, independence, familiar experiences and — of course — the opportunity to treat themselves! 🛍️🍫❤️

Come on in, have a browse and treat yourself! 😊

We had our weekly visit from Strawberry Fields Nursery today as part of our Little Links activity. Today we decorated pots using craft bits for the children to take home. Our residents offered a friendly helping hand and taught them techniques for them to practice.
We look forward to seeing them again next week!

Some of our ladies enjoyed a lovely trip out to Chorley Market, and what a wonderful time they all had! 🛍️

There was plenty to see and browse, with everyone enjoying the opportunity to explore the market and treat themselves to some lovely new garments and beautiful jewellery. It was the perfect chance to enjoy a little retail therapy, have a chat, and spend some quality time together.

Of course, all that shopping was thirsty work, so we made a well-deserved stop for a warm drink and a delicious slice of cake. ☕🍰 It was the perfect way to relax and recharge before heading home.

A fantastic day out was had by all, filled with shopping, laughter, treats and lots of lovely memories. We’re so pleased everyone enjoyed their trip! 💕

Object Storytelling with Hannah.

What a wonderful Object Storytelling session we had today!

We used a selection of familiar objects and pictures from the past to see what memories they could bring back, and it really did open up some fantastic conversations.

Our residents shared stories about their parents, childhoods, family life and their younger years, giving us little glimpses into the lives they had lived before coming to Astley View. It was lovely to sit and listen to their memories, learn more about each other and, of course, have plenty of laughs along the way! 🥰

One of my favourite moments of the session was when one of our residents started reminiscing about his time playing football. ⚽️

I asked him what position he played and he told me he was a midfielder. Naturally, I then had to ask what his football nickname was…

He smiled from ear to ear and said:

“Rip.” 😂

So, of course, I couldn't resist saying, “Oh, so the coach would shout, ‘Come on, let em' Rip!’” 😂

We all had a good laugh, and it was such a lovely little moment.

That's what I love about reminiscence activities you never quite know where a simple object or question is going to take you.

Today wasn't just about remembering the past. It was about sharing stories, getting to know each other better, laughing together and celebrating the lives and experiences that make each of our residents who they are.

A truly lovely session. 💕

A big thank you also goes to all our wonderful volunteers and stallholders for giving up their time and helping to make the day such a success.

We couldn’t have done it without you! 🌞🎪
