It was a day of family fun at Rose Lodge care home, Carer’s Way, as the home hosted its annual Summer Fair as part of this year’s Aycliffe Festival.
Guests of all ages were welcomed to the free afternoon event which featured a bouncy castle, games, various stalls and cake sale.
The home volunteered to host their Summer fair as part of the Aycliffe Festival, a community-hosted events programme which saw events take place in venues across Newton Aycliffe from Friday, July 3, to Sunday, July 12.
Rose Lodge, which offers residential and specialist dementia care, raised over £200 from the day for the residents’ fund which goes towards extra treats for the residents such as day trips out.
Care Manager Nicola Wheatley said: “Our Summer fair was a big success with residents, families and guests on the day saying that they’d had a brilliant time. We were delighted for the opportunity to get involved in the Aycliffe Festival. It’s very important to us that our residents can continue to stay active within our community and taking part in the festival was a great opportunity to further build relationships with those in our local area.”
