Verulam House Care Home, in the heart of the cathedral city of St Albans, Hertfordshire, is an oasis of calm in a busy and vibrant city.

Residents are loving our new *wellbeing salon*! 💇💅 Not only can they get their hair done, but they can now have their nails done too. In the new year, we’re hoping to expand our services even further to include **reflexology, massage, and other alternative therapies**.
Moazzam really enjoyed having her nails done today, just look at her smile! ✨💖

We had the most wonderful Christmas celebration filled with laughter, music, and togetherness. Our amazing manager dressed up as Santa Claus 🎅, joined by our lovely Elf — Joan, our Head of Housekeeping — and together they spread so much joy by distributing Christmas gifts to our residents 🎁❤️
With festive songs, dancing during lunch, smiling faces, and residents enjoying the day with their visitors, the atmosphere was truly heart-warming. Days like these remind us that Christmas is all about love, kindness, and sharing special moments together.
A day full of smiles, memories, and Christmas magic ✨🎄
