Young duo gets crafty with residents of Baytree Court Care Home

October 14, 2019

Young brother and sister duo, James and Evelyn, from Worlaby recently bought their creative flair to Baytree Court Care Home as part of a local Youth Lifestyle Project.

The Lifestyle Project is a community project run by Humberside Police which aims to encourage young people between the ages of 10 and 18 to give back during the school holidays to their local community and make a positive difference in some else’s life.

For their project James and Evelyn kindly volunteered to visit Baytree Court Care Home and spent the day supporting residents.

Bringing along a set of art supplies James and Evelyn held an art and crafts session decorating rocks with the residents of the home in a wide range of colour and patterns to brighten the home and bring a smile to residents faces.

Stella Brackenbury, Manager of Baytree Court said “We were delighted to welcome James and Evelyn to the home and they were both friendly, kind and considerate to all of our residents. We are so pleased to see they are now being recognised for all their hard work, they absolutely deserve the recognition and we wish them the best of luck.”

Since their visit, the inspirational young duo has been recognised for their kindness and hard work. James and Evelyn have been jointly nominated to receive one of the Lifestyle Project Awards which could include also include prizes such as a trip to South Africa, a trip to Disneyland Paris, UK adventure holidays, days out at Flamingo Land and more.

Although the duo will not find out which of the prizes they have been awarded until November 13th they have already guaranteed a smile from the residents of Baytree Court.

Good luck James and Evelyn!

To all the staff at Almond View - a big thank you for looking after Mum, with such kindness and dedication. Despite living 400 miles away, I always had a good feeling that she was in good hands. When I did visit, the staff without exception, stopped to chat to us even though they were extremely busy. Please accept my heart felt thank you to you all - a real credit to Almond View.

Bankview Care Home

Thank you for the excellent level of care that my father, Frank Boyle, has received. Bankview demonstrated for us the template for a care home and how it should feel and be run. Friendly, welcoming, excellent care levels, length of time staff remain loyal to the home and above all a clear and comforting atmosphere of great leadership.

Both mum and I were most impressed with Beechwood and we have decided that is where we would like Dad to come to. You have put both mine and mum's minds at rest knowing that Dad will be looked after.

K Macdonald in memory of my Aunt Jean

I can't exaggerate the admiration I have for the management and staff of Craigielea. I've never experienced so much patience, coaxing, kindness and care. These people share their lives and emotions, laugh and cry and mourn for the people who entrust themselves to care.

J Ellis in memory of Steve

The staff talked about my best friend being an inspiration to them, despite his illness It made me change my approach with him, instead of being despondent and sad, I spoke with him the way we had always been with each other. The staff saw him as a person.

My uncle, who is a retired GP, recently visited Dad on a trip over from Canada and commented that Craigielea is one of the best places he has ever seen in his experience of elderly care units. Very homely, calm, relaxing and wonderful staff. Keep up the fantastic work you do!
