A luxury care home in Studley has made the most of the gaps in the summer showers to host an open week for the local community.
Studley Rose, on Pool Road, has been providing care for the community since 2012, regularly hosting lively events for residents, relatives and locals to enjoy together. Its latest open week culminated in a celebratory summer garden fayre, which was graced by some rare summer sunshine and four furry guests of honour.
Bringing smiles and creating memorable moments for many were a group of alpacas and llamas named Honey, Hannah, Bonnie and Geraldine, who toured the fayre to greet guests.
On the amazing turnout from both the local community and the weather, home manager, Faye Maycroft, said: “We were overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity in support of our wonderful home at our Summer Garden Party. We’d like to say a huge thank you to everybody who came to visit us. Given the summer has been off to a damp start, we’re so glad there was a break in the clouds to enable everyone to come together in the gardens and enjoy the music and ice cream.”
The day was kicked off by town crier, Adrian Smith, before visitors were able to enjoy a range of refreshments including iced coffees and an ice cream van. Children enjoyed the bouncy castle and were spellbound by a local circus performer and singers. Meanwhile, a range of stalls offered gifts to remember the day by.
Faye added: “There really was something for everyone and the smiles all round were brilliant to see. The local fire brigade even popped along which delighted residents and visitors alike. We really are so grateful for all of the support the day received.”
Studley Rose has recently opened ‘The View’ – a luxury residence enjoying views out towards Studley Castle. Providing both long term and respite stays, The View is a luxurious and supportive environment which can provide that extra level of reassurance to both residents and their loved ones. With leading facilities and the attentive Macc Care team on hand, The View is ideal for those who need a little more support day-to-day or perhaps after a hospital stay.
