05 Nov 2026Our current group of children completed their final session at Redlands House Care Home this afternoon. Throughout their time at Redlands, they have showed care, compassion and kindness with their older friends. As a school, we know how much the children love these sessions - we've taken over 100 children to Redlands now and have around 100 children waiting patiently for their turn 💚. We also see how much joy the visits bring to the residents. These children will receive their Community Kindness Award badges in assembly on Friday to recognise their commitment to spreading kindness in our local community. Friend in Deed
04 Nov 2026A lovely surprise in the post! Yesterday, we received some exciting news in the form of a certificate recognising us as a nominee for the Connecting Communities Award at the Broadland District Council Community Awards 2026! @broadlanddc We believe this may be in recognition of the work we do with at Redlands House Care Home through our links with Friend in Deed , although we're not entirely sure! Whatever the reason, we are absolutely delighted to have been recognised and would like to say a huge thank you to whoever nominated us.💚 If anyone knows more about our nomination, we'd love to hear from you!
