RESIDENTS at a care home in Droitwich have been celebrating Chinese New Year by hanging decorations and trying some mouth-watering treats.
Staff and residents at the Westmead Residential Care Home in Westmead Close, made Chinese lanterns to celebrate the Year of the Sheep, and say ‘Kung Hei Fat Choy’, or Happy Chinese New Year.
They also cracked open fortune cookies, tried some tasty Chinese cuisine, and wore Chinese accessories to celebrate.
Westmead’s activities leader Maureen Morse, said: “Our residents are so creative and really enjoy themed celebrations, especially where nice food is involved. We all had great fun creating stunning decorations to make sure our home was dressed to impress.”
Joan Dewdney, a 98-year-old resided, a the residential care home, added: “I loved making the lanterns, and having them sit on our windowsill with the sun shining through was truly beautiful – we definitely looked the part.”
