Residents at a Kenilworth care home have been getting into the Easter spirit by holding a colourful Easter fete.

Family, friends and the local community joined with staff and residents for a day of fun and games at Kenilworth Manor Care Home – raising over £400 for resident activities.

The event included a raffle, tombola and cake stand, alongside a range of stalls selling handbags, cakes and crafts. Residents also made their own Easter bonnets.

Maria Harrington, Care Manager at Kenilworth Manor, said: “We had a wonderful day at our Easter fete and it was made all the better by so many of our residents’ families and friends coming to show their support.

“We wanted our residents to be as creative and as colourful as possible with their Easter bonnets, and I have to say there were some wonderful designs and everyone loved getting involved.

“The money raised will go towards activities for the residents, which helps to give them so many new experiences which is so important in later life.”

Registered with the Care Quality Commission for 34 residents, Kenilworth Manor provides various important facilities for the elderly, including convalescent care and access to physiotherapists.
