Father John is an Akari Star

'Akari Stars' are our little way of recognising when our colleagues, residents, friends, families and visitors to our homes go that little extra mile to put a smile on someone's face. These gestures can range from making items or baking buns for a stall at an Open Day, to picking up extra shifts without complaint to ensure the smooth running of their home or for the simple act of a volunteers kindness by sitting with a resident who may not receive many visitors. Moorfield House's latest 'Star' is Father John, a retired priest who volunteers almost every evening at Moorfield House assisting with evening meals. Father John used to visit his brother who was a resident at Moorfield House a few years ago and has continued to share his time with us ever since. Father John was over the moon to receive his 'star' and may have even shed a little tear. Thank you for choosing to spend your time with us Father John :-)
