WE CAN’T IMAGINE WORKING ANYWHERE ELSE!” SAY OUR TEAM
Our dedicated team members say they can't imagine working anywhere else as they collectively celebrated more than 250 of loyal service between them. Our lifestyle lead, Jackie Avenell, was one of four team members celebrating their ‘21’ years at our home this year. Since their first shift in 2005, they are proud to have achieved over two decades of caring for our home’s residents. “I have met and made so many friends within the home and the community during my time here,” Jackie said, “but most of all I love the connection I have with the residents, and I truly regard them as my second family."

RESIDENT PHIL'S FLYING DREAM TAKES FLIGHT
Our resident Phil Kelly, 67, who lives with Motor Neurone Disease, has been a resident at our home since 2022. Phil is a lifelong aviation enthusiast, and it has been his dream to take to the skies once again after a special 50th birthday gift from his brother gave them the opportunity to fly a Spitfire. Phil has treasured this memory and has wished to return to the skies ever since. Our home’s team arranged a flying experience for him at Fairoaks Airfield, where he took to the skies over Surrey for 30 minutes enjoying the trip with fellow resident Dorothy Tomazin, 92.

SPECIAL TRIP TO BLUEBELL WOODS MAKES TONY'S WISH COME TRUE
When Tony expressed his desire to revisit the Harry Edwards Foundation home, our team were determined to make it happen. Tony was a regular visitor to the bluebell woods at the spiritual healing sanctuary with his late wife Liz who passed away eight years ago. “It has always been a very special place to me and I was so grateful to be able to go back there,” said Tony. He was accompanied by his son Keith, daughter-in-law Sarah and grandson Lucas as well as care home manager Heather De-Ninis and lifestyle assistant Keira Patel. Tony, who now uses a wheelchair for his mobility, walked the final few steps himself to the tree he planted when he laid his wife’s ashes.
