Christmas at Broadreach

Happy Christmas from all at Broadreach House, Christmas was enjoyed by all. We had lots of Christmas festivities here at Broadreach which included a full schedule for all. The staff put on an excellent pantomime of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves, a good laugh for everyone.

The day after clients participated in their normal groups and activities in the morning and enjoyed the afternoon listening to the talented Bess sing, the daughter of Charles a counsellor here at Broadreach. The Friday before Christmas, Jason our resident Chef cooked up a storm in the kitchen for breakfast, then in the afternoon both the staff and clients joined teams to participate in a fun Christmas quiz and raffle afterwards with lots o f prizes won. Throughout the Christmas week the Clients maintained their usual daily groups but did enjoy games and activities such as guess the member of staff, from a childhood picture and other festive games, Charades, Pictionary etc.


The Clients at Longreach and Closereach enjoyed spending the their time playing festive games, eating lots of food and watching Christmas Movies. The Clients at Closereach took the opportunity to take their normal daily tasks and make them festive. The Clients each wrote messages and stuck them to their tree for decoration, every day for their daily check-in they would read an inspirational message.





Longreach had a lovely festive Christmas they enjoyed decorating the house and Christmas tree with hand made decorations. A few of the clients went to midnight mass on Christmas Eve, Christmas morning the clients were eager to open their presents from family members, each other and staff. They all helped when it came to preparing lunch and feasted on lots of food. Boxing day was more relaxing the clients spent time playing games, watching old movies and eating lots of chocolate.

On New Years Eve they all stayed up to welcome in the New Year together!!!
