Afternoon Tea at Chaseley

On Saturday 4th September the weather was on our side as we hosted the first of our ‘family afternoon tea in the garden’ events.  We wanted to bring together our residents and their loved ones to say thank you for all their kindness and support over the last 18 months.

We are still currently unable to welcome residents’ loved ones into our home, so we decided to have afternoon tea in the garden instead.  To ensure everyone’s safety we are hosting two events so that guests are spread across the two days.

It was so lovely to welcome people back into our grounds and to see faces we haven’t seen in such a long time.  we all agree it was a truly special afternoon and seeing the smiles on everyone’s faces made it all worthwhile.  We cannot wait for next one.

Why fundraise for Chaseley?

Chaseley is an independent, charity-owned nursing home and our main source of funding comes from residents’ fees, which cover the cost of their care package and contributes to the daily running costs of the home.  Various commissioning bodies fund the majority of resident care packages and we have just 5% surplus to fund all our additional costs, including the upkeep of our beautiful building, upgrading our equipment, and to provide the extra social and recreational activities and services that enhance the comfort and well-being of our residents, which is why we rely on donations and fundraising.

Fundraising Projects for 2023

2023 sees us embark on the second year of our 15 year plan enabling us to modernise, update and refresh our Chaseley home.  The planned works will ensure we can continue to deliver the best care possible to our residents for the next 75 years.

During 2023 we are looking to raise funds that will help us to complete the following:

  • Repair the final lift within the home
  • Repair and refresh 21 windows around our home
  • Repair some of the upper skylights
  • Replace some of the flooring
  • Complete the upgrade of all our bathroom facilities

The Chaseley building is a complicated one that has been altered and extended over many years and with a property of this size and complexity it is important to future plan any building works, including maintenance, repairs and improvements.  With your help, we are sure that throughout 2023 we will be able to raise the funds needed and ensure our residents continue to receive the excellent care they require, whilst living in a first class home that they deserve.
