Care home welcomes community for festive Winter Fair
HC-One’s Bowbridge Court Care Home in Newark, Nottinghamshire, opened its doors on 23rd November to residents, families, friends and members of the local community for a heart-warming Winter Fair, marking the start of the festive season.
Visitors enjoyed an afternoon filled with early Christmas cheer, including craft stalls, mince pies, mulled wine and a lively Christmas sing-along. Musical entertainment was provided by Anna Elias from Hear My Voice, whose performance brought joy and festive spirit to all attending.
The home was delighted to receive generous donations from local businesses. Hardy’s Farm Shop and Sainsbury’s kindly donated mince pies and cakes, while Barnby Gate Co-op contributed mulled wine and a selection of Christmas treats, helping to make the event especially memorable.
A raffle held during the fair raised over £250, which will go directly towards the development of a new sensory room for residents, an important addition that will support wellbeing, relaxation and meaningful engagement. Prizes were kindly donated by family, colleagues and friends of the home.
Emma Priestley, Front of House at Bowbridge Court, said:
“It was great seeing so many friends and family come together to enjoy time together, take part in the fair and share in some Christmas cheer. We’re so grateful to everyone who joined us and supported the event.”
Bowbridge Court Care Home would like to thank all who attended, donated, and contributed to a wonderful festive day for residents and the wider community.
