The fairs attracted a pretty large crowd, and lots of families, from the local community with everyone enjoying the delightful weather. There was lots going on including stalls to visit, activities to do and games to get involved in.

Talking about the fairs, Loraine Brunton, General Manager at Craig Healthcare “Our annual summer fairs really are a key highlight of our social events and occasions and this year’s fairs didn’t disappoint! There was so much going on, including huge raffles with some fabulous prizes, fortune telling, pony rides, bric-a-brac and jewellery stalls as well as the opportunity to take part in some fun and games such as ‘guess the number of sweets in the jar’ and ‘name the dog’. It was great to see families from the local area attend, as well as residents and their relatives, and get involved in the fun too! Raising £2,400 was fantastic – this money will go towards the residents’ fund that’s used to take them out on day trips and social outings, so it’s very much appreciated. Thank you to everyone who came along, it was a cracking day!”

  • "From the first day, I knew it was the place for my mum. Clean, friendly staff, lovely environment! My mum would not get the opportunity to do the activities she is experiencing if she was not in Cramlington House. It is home from home and we can visit anytime. I can't say enough of how great Cramlington House is. "

  • "This is an absolutely superb care facility. The staff say that this is the home of the residents, in which they work - and they evidence that philosophy every day. In the last months of our mother's long life, we took comfort form the fact that she was safe and secure, being well-fed and looked after. The entire care team are brilliant. "

  • "All the staff at West Farm have provided such wonderful care, compassion and support to my auntie. We both feel incredibly lucky to have found West Farm, it’s been the perfect home for my auntie. I can honestly say, hand on heart, every aspect of the care provided by each member of staff at West Farm has been outstanding."
