The team at Pentlands Nursing Home wishes you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
As we step into 2026, we’ve been reflecting on the wonderful memories made over the last few months. At Pentlands, we believe that a vibrant activities calendar is the heartbeat of our community. Staying active and social is incredibly important for our residents; it promotes cognitive health, boosts emotional well-being, and ensures that every day is filled with purpose and laughter.
Here is a look back at some of the highlights that made the end of the year so special at Pentlands.
Unforgettable Guests and Animal Antics
Our residents are always happy to meet and greet animal visitors, but our recent guest was truly unique! We welcomed a sheep to the home, and the sight of a sheep wearing nappies had residents and relatives in stitches. It isn’t every day you see a farm animal dressed for the lounge, and the laughter it sparked was the best medicine.
A Symphony of Music and Performance
Music has a magical way of bringing people together, and we’ve had some incredible talent through our doors recently:
- New Voices: We welcomed a new singer, Anna, whose performance was a huge hit. We can’t wait to have her back.
- The Golden Age of Rock ‘n’ Roll: Our Elvis impersonator brought a high-energy performance that had everyone tapping their feet and singing along to the classics.
- The Bright Sound of Brass: Trumpeter Geoff treated us to a soulful and stirring performance, filling our home with beautiful melodies.
- Community Harmonies: The Sing Well Choir visited us, proving that there is nothing quite as uplifting as the power of many voices raised in song.
Getting Creative in the Kitchen
Activities at Pentlands aren’t just about being entertained; they’re about getting stuck in! We recently held a Cheese Straw Making workshop. This hands-on session was a fantastic way for residents to engage their senses, from the feel of the dough to the delicious aroma of baking cheese wafting through the home. Plus, the best part was definitely the taste test at the end.

We are proud of the warm, engaging environment we have built here. Whether it’s through music, baking, or a visiting sheep, our goal is to ensure every resident feels truly at home.
