Birthdays are special occasions, and for residents in our care, they can be even more meaningful. Celebrating birthdays can significantly enhance a resident’s wellbeing, providing joy, connection, and a real sense of belonging. 

Why Birthdays Matter  

• A Sense of Purpose: Birthdays offer a sense of purpose and routine. 

• Social Connection: Celebrating birthdays brings residents together, fostering a sense of community and belonging. 

• Emotional Well-being: Birthdays can boost morale and provide positive emotional experiences. 

• Personal Recognition: Acknowledging a resident’s birthday makes them feel valued and appreciated. 

Creating Memorable Birthdays 

At Rowanbrook we strive to make each birthday a special occasion, after all, birthdays should be celebrated with joy, laughter, a sense of community, singing and of course some cake! 

We have recently celebrated a couple of  first birthdays of residents in our care with Yvonne and Marjorie and we have started as we intend to go on, by ensuring that our residents feel like a valued member of the Rowanbrook family.  

As you can see from the look on Marjorie’s face at receiving a cake complete with candles, it meant the world to her. 

Home Manage Bo says, “Birthdays are a special occasion for all, and we strive to make them truly memorable for our residents. Seeing their faces light up with joy as they celebrate another year shows how going the extra mile and ensuring each resident feels like a valued member of our Rowanbrook family has a really important impact”
