News & Activities July 2023

Goodbye June and Welcome July!
It has been a busy June with celebrations. We celebrated Length of Service for many staff, including 5,10 and 20 Years Service.
We also had an amazing night at the Bromley Care Awards where our very own Donna and Chris were amongst 21 finalists. Everyone was a winner that night.
July promises to be a good month also with beautiful weather, a Peaky Blinders Themed Party (fancy dress encouraged but optional) and several birthdays to celebrate.
