WARDSIDE HOUSE GAZETTE June 2025

Craft Club

Linda and her craft club have been painting stained glass, she also still hosts the Scrabble sessions and activities on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and exercise classes on a Friday. Come along and see what’s going on! You can sit and watch if you don’t want to join in. 

Around the Grounds

May has been a very dry month which surprisingly did not allow us to scarify and fertilise the lawns as we would have wished. However, with the recent change in the weather then grass will begin to grow again. The rhododendrons are now in bloom as are hawthorns in the hedgerows. 

Staff News

Sabian du Plessis, our chef, has decided to leave us.
Many of you will have already met our new chef, Rona MacMillan who has joined our catering team. 

Residents News

We welcome Mr Brian Hughes - who after many years of visiting his wife here, has decided to join our community permanently. Welcome!
