A Warm Welcome

We would like to say a big welcome to Ivy and Josephine who have joined us at Nettlestead. We hope that you will be very happy and are feeling settled with the Nettlestead family.

Congratulations

We have had quite a few birthdays over the last few months so a lot of cake was enjoyed by all! Happy Birthday to Winifred, Betty, Eileen and Helen. We had a member of the Bromley Compliance Team visit us who gave such lovely feedback about Nettlestead. Well done to all and keep up the good work.

Feedback

We would like to remind everyone that positive customer reviews and good online ratings increasingly play a key part in helping us come to the attention of potential clients, and so are always valued by us. However, we recognise how valuable your time is so we are offering a bottle of wine to all online reviewers that take the time to share their opinion with us. These can be posted at www.CareHome.co.uk.

We now have sweets and treats by the front door which we are collecting donations for the Children’s Air Ambulance and are still collecting stamps (new/old and UK/overseas) for the Air Ambulance. I am sure we can all get involved and start collecting for this worthy charity. Please do continue to drop them off the next time you pop in for a visit.

Facebook

Please do have a look at our facebook page which we would encourage you all to go on and have a look at and share ‘Nettlestead News’ so if you haven’t already please do go on and like our page!
