Woodpeckers resident enjoying cocktails and sunshine!

July 13, 2011

As we have discussed in one of our earlier news articles and which you can read about here, Colten Care recently became the first carehome in the South of the UK to install Colten Cove, a therapeutic sunroom at Belmore Lodge, one of its three Lymington carehomes.

However, as the photo below shows, the sunroom is not limited to use just by the residents of Belmore Lodge. This is Joan (Jonah) Powell, one of the residents of Colten Care's Brockenhurst carehome, Woodpeckers, who during a mini-bus trip to the sunroom, indulged in one or two cocktails- good thing she wasn't having to drive home!
