On the 2nd September 2026 Southend Care hosted its first Staff and Service User Summer Event. It was a chance for everyone to have some fun from across all our services. There was activities for all to take part in. We enjoyed Hook a Duck, Jenga, Whack a Mole, Play Your Cards Right and everyone favourite THE STOCKS!!

We also had entertainment from The Quiet Man and Grace came in to sing for the afternoon too. Thank you so much.

Simono magician attended with his fabulous magic tricks, walking around the gardens and focussing on some of our residents and service users that weren't able to join in outside.

Thank you to Domenicos Ice Cream for serving us all with Ice Cream throughout the afternoon.

This also gave us a chance to raise money for Gold Geese Charity and for our service users amenity fund. All funds raised from the Raffle, BBQ and Ice Cream sales went to these great causes.

We would like to thank the following companies for their generous donations towards the raffle. Brewandchew Southend Adventure Island, Southend Sea life Centre, David Lloyd Southend, Morley Nurseries, Asda. We raised an amazing £600. This will be split between Gold Geese Charity and our Service Users Amenity funds Southend Care Ltd

Thank you to Kola our amazing photographer that captured every aspect of the day. Below are only a few pictures taken. We will be releasing more over the next coming days.

Thank you to all of the staff that got involved, got in the stocks and made our first event a huge success!!! We could not have done it with out you all. And to our kitchen team cooking up some tasty burgers and hot dogs on the BBQ!!

SCL Summer Garden Competition

A big well done to Project 49 and Viking House for their fantastic contributions. Viking's colourful hanging baskets are bursting with life, while Project 49's bee tree and turtle planters have added a fun and creative touch to our outdoor spaces.

It's wonderful to see the talent, teamwork, and community pride on display. Thank you for helping make our environment brighter, greener, and more welcoming for everyone!

SCL Summer Garden Competition

Norvick and Westwood also had entries to the SCL Summer Garden Competition.
Norvick created a butterfly garden along with a large barrel planter full of vibrant, pollinator-friendly flowers to bring colour and wildlife into the space.
Westwood designed a caterpillar made up tyres to plant their floral blooms, along with two scarecrows at the end.
Such unique designs from both services. Thank you for taking part it and for enhancing the outdoor spaces within your service.

SCL Summer Garden Competition 2026

Come and take a look at the beautifully created summer garden entries for Brook Meadows and Longmans.
Longmans designed a forgotten garden with toasters, microwaves and desks as planters and a magical fairy garden from Brook Meadows House.
We were so impressed with these entries and how staff and people we support have come together to make such colourful spaces in their service. Thank you so much for taking part.
