Nollaig Shona Daoibh Go Léir. There was plenty of festive cheer here at Shannon Lodge Nursing Home this Christmas Day. Shannon Lodge signed up to Carepack.ie for the first time and there was a package for every resident to open Christmas Day. Packages came from all over the country, from county Antrim at the top of the country and Co. Cork at the bottom and all the counties in between. Such care and attention was put into each and every package and the residents truly loved them. So thank you to all that sent a package, you may even see yours in the photographs below.

Usually we're the ones reading the papers around here, but some of our residents made the newspaper this week. Featured in the Roscommon People, some of our residents shared their stories of Christmases gone.
Lovely read and if you haven't already read, we suggest you get a copy of it, Roscommon People is a free newspaper. For your convenience we've shared a link here https://roscommonpeople.ie/memories-of-christmas-in-the-old-days/ It was a team effort here in Shannon Lodge, all hands were on deck, for our annual Christmas party on Saturday 16th December. Everyone worked together to deliver a very festive afternoon. Santa made a big entrance, thank you Santa, wink wink. The residents are still concerned that you got home alright, you seemed a bit limp. Tom Moran belted out the tunes, with special guests, namely Tommy, Peter and Geraldine's Grandson James. A big thank you to Mags and Team in the kitchen for a great spread. Here are just a few pictures from the afternoon.
Lovely day was had in the Keadue Town Hall on Wednesday 13th December. Organised by the Roscommon Dementia Alliance Committee, there was dinner, music from local children, followed by music from the one and only Charlie McGettigan. Thanks to Ciarán Mullooly for organising a wonderful day and for a great year of Dementia Cafe/Memory Cafe, here's to next year. Special thanks to our busdriver Ken too! |
