News from our Facebook feed
Oxendon House residents enjoyed a visit from Dan from the Northamptonshire Fire and Rescue Service, who delivered an engaging and informative talk on fire safety. 🔥🚒 Dan shared helpful advice about staying safe at home, including the safest ways to charge our mobile phones 📱🔌 and the importance of keeping fire doors closed and clear to help prevent the spread of fire 🚪. Residents also shared stories about the gas fires in their own homes and reminisced about using chip pans🍳 and having candles on christmas trees back in the day 🚫 discussing the risks they posed and how fire safety advice has changed over the years. We also talked about how many lives have been saved since carbon monoxide alarms were introduced 🏠🔔. It was wonderful to hear everyone’s experiences and learn together. We also went through our fire procedure as a group 📋✅ so everyone feels confident about what to do in an emergency. Thank you to Dan for such an informative and enjoyable visit! 👏😊🚒

The talented duo — featuring a spirited piano accordion player 🪗 and an energetic drummer 🥁 — created a wonderful atmosphere that had residents tapping their feet 👣, clapping along 👏, and singing at the top of their voices 🎤🎵. Their mix of well-loved classics and traditional favourites sparked fond memories 💭💖 and encouraged everyone to join in, whether harmonising with friends or swaying gently to the beat 💃🕺. Laughter rang out 😂 and applause filled the room 🙌 as the joyful sound of music echoed through Oxendon House, making it a truly uplifting, heartwarming, and unforgettable afternoon for all 🌟🎼💞.
