Community based projects at our extra care homes

Broockhurst Court Christmas Lunch

Residence were presented with a full festive Christmas lunch buffet, accompanied with cakes and savoury nibbles and of cause Christmas wouldn’t be complete without a real tree.

This was coordinated by members of the Repairs & Maintenance team supported by officers from Health, Wellbeing & Adults. Staff from across the two services volunteered their time to decorate the lounges, serve the buffet food and stay to chat with the residents.

For residents that were not able to attend on the day, volunteers delivered plates of food to individual flats.

Quotes received from residents
