Residents, relatives, and colleagues at Murrayfield House Care Home, run by HC-One Scotland, recently enjoyed a lively Oktoberfest celebration filled with music, laughter, and togetherness. The home was transformed into a Bavarian-style beer hall, bringing a touch of Germany to the heart of Edinburgh.
Residents and guests were greeted with vibrant autumn decorations, blue-and-white bunting, and tables adorned with themed centrepieces. The air was filled with the cheerful sounds of traditional German folk music as everyone joined in the fun, dancing, clapping along, and raising their glasses to friendship and good health.
A selection of traditional German-inspired treats such as pretzels, bratwurst, and apple strudel were enjoyed by all, along with a choice of soft drinks and non-alcoholic beers to mark the occasion safely and inclusively.
The Murrayfield House team worked hard to make the day memorable, donning Bavarian hats and serving food and drinks with plenty of smiles. Relatives were invited to join in, creating a truly family-friendly celebration that filled the home with warmth and joy.
The Oktoberfest celebration is just one of many themed events held throughout the year at Murrayfield House Care Home, which places great emphasis on enriching activities that promote wellbeing, connection, and fun for residents and their loved ones.
