It’s the little things…

Apr 26, 2023

Great Places residents at John Atkinson Court, Salford have been trying to establish a lunchtime club, where elderly and/or vulnerable residents can meet up once a week and have a home cooked meal and socialise with other residents.

Each week residents are asked to contribute a small amount to help towards providing ingredients for a traditional home cooked meal and a few residents volunteer to make the meal and serve it to the rest.

One week, Emanuel Whittaker Resident Liaison Officer, Sarah Kershaw, decided to provide the ingredients to make mince, onions and potatoes.

The residents were extremely grateful, as was Babbs leading the group here today, as well as the other volunteers who also helped to make the dinner.

Problem Solved

Mar 15, 2023

While replacing the kitchen for RBH resident, Mrs McCondichie, Emanuel Whittaker Joiner, James Radcliffe, kindly put up some large wall brackets, perfect for a microwave to sit on safely.

RBH resident, Mrs McCondichie, states that the microwave will look lovely on the brackets and now she can use the extra space for a brand new air fryer.

Mrs McCondichie sincerely thanks Emanuel Whittaker for the space saving solution and will enjoy her new kitchen thoroughly!

Cooking up a storm

Mar 15, 2023

Great Places Resident, Ms Bailey-Turner has recently had a new kitchen fitted by Emanuel Whittaker and to finish off the kitchen the resident purchased a extractor to go over the cooker.

Ms Bailey-Turner was struggling to get anyone to fit it for her and asked if the Emanuel Whittaker site team could help.

Of course, we were happy to fit this for the resident.

Well done team!

Thoughtful Floor Layer

Mar 15, 2023

After completing another Kitchen Installation, Emanuel Whittaker Floor Layer, Stuart Thwaite, was laying the new kitchen floor and decided he would carry on fitting the new floor into the store room adjacent to the kitchen, to give the job a nice finished look.

RBH residents, Mr Shalime & Ms Bibi, were happily surprised when they walked into the kitchen to have a look at their new floor.

Well done Stuart!
