We are holding a day of both remembrance and celebration for this year's Armistice Day as residents, staff and family join together here at Richmond Nantwich.
The day starts at 10.45am with Volunteer Don Mudd & his wife Margaret leading us in a fantastic "Sing-a-Long" with music from the wars. At 11am we will all respectfully mark the official two minute silence after which representatives from the Royal British Legion together with Paul Ramsey from St Mary's Church Nantwich will join us in a short service of remembrance.
This service is particularly poignant as both residents and staff have personal experience of the wars both past and more recently. Mrs Sheila Humphreys served in the WRENs from 1942 to 1946 and was based in Blackpool whilst staff member Major Keith Mahoney MBE served with the Parachute Regiment in Iraq, Bosnia and Northern Ireland; both will be helping to lay the wreath at the service.
In the afternoon at 2.30pm, Nantwich Young Voices will be here taking us back to the 1940s as we start our celebrations in earnest and to complete the day, Sheena and Alan the singing duo will be bringing us The Blitz Spirit from 6.30pm.

Our Restaurant has undergone a huge transformation literally doubling in size and we think this is definitely worth celebrating in the only way we know how – with a party!
Starting with a Drinks Reception, followed by a Grand Buffet and AMAZING entertainment this is a night not to be missed; and with Christmas just around the corner what a way to kick start the festive period with a BANG!
The evening is Black Tie and tickets are now on sale for £15 at Reception or by calling 01270 629080.

We are delighted to have won both a Gold Award for Nantwich in Bloom and the highest accolade at the North West Britain in Bloom Awards - OUTSTANDING!
Year after year our gardens win these awards and yet we never rest on our laurels (!), we Dig Deep and work hard to make them even better! So another HUGE WELL DONE to Jonathan and Gary Lawton!
We are also judged on how we use our outside space and boy do we use it! From Dog Shows to Theatre Productions, Brass Bands and Fireworks to Summer Fayres, our grounds are here to enjoy!
The next outdoor event will be our fabulous two day Traditional Christmas Market over the weekend of 2nd and 3rd December and whilst the garden may be looking like it is having a well-deserved rest, the decorations and lights will more than make up for this!
