Residents at Valentine House care home in Silver End enjoyed a beautiful afternoon for their annual Garden Party and Fun Day at the home.
The staff at the home on Broadway in the village of Silver End between Braintree and Witham prepared the large, secluded garden at the rear of the home with bunting, decorations, garden games and entertainment for residents and their relatives and friends.
Residents and guests made their way to the garden party via a balloon arch which acted as a grand entrance to the garden where they enjoyed a barbecue, party games, entertainment and an opportunity to meet and chat with other families and friends of relatives plus the staff from the home.
Manager Emma Galvin thanked the staff: “It’s been a fantastic day. Our staff have worked really hard to put on a great event for everyone. The sun has shone, so we’ve been able to enjoy ourselves outside and find some shade from the hot sun when we’ve needed to. Everyone has had big smiles on their faces, and its been lovely to see so many happy residents, visitors and staff.”
