Elizabeth Court

Valentine's Digni-Tea Action Day 2014. This was our first year celebrating Dignity Action Day at Elizabeth Court Care Centre, St Helens, and we wanted to make the event a memorable one for everybody. We invited families and friends to afternoon tea, and celebrated on valentines day. We decorated different rooms and offered refreshments, but for residents who have spouses, we decided to do something a little bit special. Photographs from wedding days were used to personalise Valentine's cards and special messages were placed inside. This idea touched a lot of hearts and made the day a lovely occasion. Everyone received either a rose or chocolates, and photographs were taken and placed into an album for everyone to remember the day by. It was quite an emotional day seeing that even a small gesture of kindness can make such a difference to a persons life.
