At Ash Grange care home, in Bloxwich, West Yorkshire, they celebrated Diwali Day.
With decorations put up in the dining room, Residents and Colleagues had an afternoon of talking about Diwali celebrations along with some music playing while looking at various scarfs, sari's and jewellery which Residents really enjoyed talking about and trying on the scarfs. The catering team cooked a lovely hot and cold dinner for Residents to enjoy on their afternoon get-together.
One Colleague explained, “It was so nice to see our Residents getting involved in the celebrations for Diwali Day.”
Residents really enjoyed seeing the lovely jewellery and scarfs; one of the ladies felt like she was in a fashion show as she loved it so much!
Mrs Mayo, who lives at Ash Grange, said, “These scarfs are beautiful and they suit me!”
Home Manager, Anita Horton, remarked, “It’s so nice seeing the Residents enjoying the celebrations for Diwali Day, there was lots of happy smiley faces.”
