Creativity sparks at Wood Glen

Typewriter with sunflowers

John Hunter at Wood Glen has penned a poem of gratitude for the village team, with a special call out for receptionist Jo Murden, whose friendly smile greets residents every time they step into The Lodge.

Time to say thanks

Some poems are long and some are short,
This one is versed to express some thoughts;
Most like to wake and plan each day,
It makes one feel so bright and gay.

But recent times have changed our views,
As doom and gloom is worldwide news;
But at The Lodge there is a friendly team,
They work for us – it feels like a dream.

So these few lines are full of praise,
They manage, they garden, over many days;
Our life at Wood Glen is one of the best,
The team excels whatever the test.

But who takes most calls? You already know,
A friendly smile comes from a lady called JO;
So a big tick to all, and THANKS all around,
There’s no better team – nowhere can be found.
