Astley View Care Home in Chorley is getting ready for its Christmas Market on Saturday 6th December from 1pm - 4pm, with residents already embracing the festive spirit during a creative wreath-making workshop held this week.

Led by the lifestyle team, the session brought residents together to design and decorate their own Christmas wreaths using fresh winter foliage, ribbons and seasonal decorations. The activity encouraged conversation, creativity and plenty of laughter, with many residents sharing memories of past Christmas traditions.

Christina Durnan, Manager at Astley View Care Home, said: “Christmas is always a special time at Astley View Care Home, and it is lovely to see residents getting involved and enjoying the run-up to our market. The wreath-making workshop filled the home with colour, conversation and a real sense of togetherness. We are delighted to open our doors to the community on Saturday and invite everyone to join us.”
