Ahead of Remembrance Day on 11th November, residents and staff at Chirk Court have been working hard to create a stunning poppy cascade. The striking handmade display can be seen flowing from the home’s balcony, down to the ground; creating a visual tribute to veterans, including some who now live at the home near Wrexham.
Delighted residents have begun to move into their new homes in Phase One at Hen Bentre Pwylaidd, Gwynedd. The flagship independent living scheme, for elderly residents over the age of 55, has been developed by social homes provider ClwydAlyn, in partnership with Gwynedd Council, Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board, the Welsh Government and Williams Homes (Bala) Ltd.
Dedicated care professional Wendy Jones has been recognised by her employer ClwydAlyn, with a long-service award in recognition of over three decades of exemplary work at the organisation’s dementia and residential care home, Chirk Court, in Chirk near Wrexham.
Residents living with dementia at Chirk Court Care Home in Chirk near Wrexham, have benefitted from the addition of a welcoming and calming sensory space. The home’s Sensory Room, which opened at the end of September, funded by a community grant from The Cadbury Foundation, has offered residents and staff a place to relax, connect, engage their senses and enjoy all that the new environment has to offer.
