Celebrating Summer with a Sweet and Successful Strawberry Fete

The spirit of community and summertime joy came together at Trinity House Care Home's annual Strawberry Fete, held on the 27th of July. Weeks of anticipation and outreach culminated in a day filled with laughter, delicious treats, and heartwarming connections.

In the weeks leading up to the fete, staff and residents ventured into the local park, spreading the word and building excitement within the community. Their efforts paid off, as the fete was buzzing with visitors eager to support the home and enjoy the festivities.

The day itself was a whirlwind of activity. Live music filled the air, while tempting aromas wafted from the bake sale. Residents and visitors alike tried their luck at the tombola and browsed the delightful array of crafts on display. The raffle, with its generous prizes, drew enthusiastic participation.

More Than Just a Fundraiser

Beyond the fun and games, the fete served a deeper purpose - fostering a sense of connection between the care home and the wider community. "It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces from the neighbourhood," said Ann, Home Manager at Trinity House. "Events like this remind us how important it is to be an active part of our local community, and how those connections enrich the lives of our residents."

The event also raised an impressive £400 for the residents' fund, which will be used to enhance the quality of life for those living at Trinity House.

A Home Where Everyone Belongs

Trinity House Care Home is more than just a place to live; it's a community where older people are supported, valued, and empowered to live their best lives. The success of the Strawberry Fete is a testament to the home's commitment to creating a welcoming and inclusive environment.

Ann concluded, "We're so grateful to everyone who came out to support us. It's heartwarming to see the community come together to celebrate and make a difference in the lives of our residents. This is what makes Trinity House truly special."
