💙 Making memories at the Club Wellgate Staff Holiday Home! 💙

Emily from HR, and her family had a wonderful week enjoying some well-deserved quality time together at our staff holiday home, making the most of the lovely weather and everything the local area has to offer.

There were plenty of special memories made along the way, including a trip to ROARR! to celebrate her son's 11th birthday, a visit to the historic Castle Rising and a lovely day enjoying the sunshine at Brancaster Beach.

They rounded off the week with some football and a visit to the seaside arcades.

Emily and her family had such a fantastic stay and are already looking forward to returning next year! 🏖️

🕊️ Hannah has officially flown the Wade Court nest! ❤️

Ceri, Service Manager gives us a lovely update:

'Hannah moved in with us within a few months of Wade Court opening three years ago, having just turned 18.

We are saddened to see her leave, but also incredibly excited that Hannah has now flown the Wade Court nest and is living independently in her own property within the community.

Since moving in, Hannah has been working for the Fire Service and is now studying to become a paramedic at our local university. As you can imagine, we are extremely proud of everything she has achieved.

Hannah showed her appreciation by creating a beautiful piece of artwork for our office and writing a personal note for every member of staff. ❤️

Hannah will be very much missed, but she has promised to stay in touch. We can't wait to hear about all her future adventures! 🙌😊'

Wishing you all the very best, Hannah 💙
