Mrs Hill, an owner at Deercote Court, is taking part in the 'Babs' 100th Birthday Walk for NHS' until 14/05/2020 to raise money for NHS Charities Together and your support would really be appreciated.
 
Babs’ story
On Thursday morning I watched the emotional moment of Captain Tom completing his walk for the NHS. That same morning my very dear friend died in Harlow Hospital.  The dedicated nursing team worked tirelessly to care and ease her suffering.  I felt I have to in some way say thank you to these fantastic, wonderful, caring nurses and doctors.
After much thought the only thing I might manage is to copy and do a walk like captain Tom.  So my aim is to walk 100 steps 100 times to my 100th birthday in May to show my gratitude and give something back to the amazing staff in the Health Service.

Yet another well enjoyed Halloween fancy dress party and buffet supper by Owners and staff at Deercote Court...  Wicked food, spooky games, creepy decorations and carved pumpkins also contributed to the great success of this event.

A very enjoyable evening was had by all at our Barbecue supper event with the fabulous entertainer Gary Benjafield.  He sings all the Neil Diamond songs and tours the country with his backing group.  He has been here before and will definitely be back again.

Some of our ladies enjoying tea on the terrace in the sunshine on our lovely Rattan furniture...

Deercote Court's 2018 Halloween party saw another fabulous Spooktacular night enjoyed by the owners, including graveyard trifle, giant spiders, the mummy game and lots of colourful costumes...

Deercote Court raised a brilliant £240.00 for Macmillan at their coffee morning!

Another fabulous night of food and fun had by all throughout our Italian Evening at Deercote Court.  The delicious four course meal was freshly prepared in our kitchen by our Italian staff.

We enjoyed some great entertainment with singer Gary Benjafield .  He tours the country with his band and is playing at the Harlow Playhouse this October.  He specializes in Neil Diamond but does covers for many others as well.  Lots of dancing, singing and laughter.  A wonderful event!

Another wonderful evening enjoyed by all the owners and their guests at Deercote Court.   A group of ukulele players entertained us for the evening, followed by a sumptuous ploughman’s supper and champagne provided by an owner to celebrate a special wedding anniversary.

Our Mardi Gras ball was enjoyed by all.  The night embodied lots of eating, drinking, singing and dancing with one of our popular entertainers.  Oh what fun we had!!

There is always so much going on at Deercote Court; Bingo next week and a magic show with an Afternoon tea already planned for March.  What a lovely fulfilling life we all lead here.

Deercote has lots of events going on in the very near future.  A Christmas Carol concert kindly provided by a local primary school, Mulled Wine and mince pies and a Christmas party with an entertainer.  In 2018 a Mardi Gras ball is planned for Valentine’s day.

Owners enjoyed a fun evening at Deercote Court's Halloween Party.

Summer is here at last and lots of exciting events are planned. BBQ supper with a categories quiz,  Cream Tea and an Italian night which will be cooked by our own staff, with entertainment to name but a few.  We can now make the most of the fine weather with our new Rattan garden furniture  (pictured).  We have two new Duty Managers who have been transferred from Housekeeping staff who are very enthusiastic about providing a professional, caring and sociable environment alongside the rest of the team.
