Last week Minterne was buzzing with colour and imagination as the residents had a lovely afternoon creating tissue scrunch art.
There’s something wonderfully freeing about an activity where there’s no “right way” to do it — just pure creativity taking the lead.

We have a new resident here at Minterne who’s livened up our community with his talent and entertainment. This afternoon, he treated us to a guitar solo and singing performance. It was an amazing experience, and the atmosphere was just filled with joy. Everyone had a fantastic time, and it was heart-warming to see all the residents so engaged and entertained. I’m sure we can look forward to many more delightful performances in the future
