Local school children have created eye-catching artwork to decorate the hoardings of Thame’s newest care home.
Students from John Hampden Primary School were invited by Care UK to get creative with a piece of artwork around the theme of ‘who do you care about?’. The artwork is now on display on the hoardings surrounding Cuttlebrook Hall, on Stock Road, as the care home is beginning to take shape.
The multi-million-pound, purpose-built care home, which will provide full-time residential, nursing and specialist dementia care for up to 68 older people in Thame, is due to open in December 2023.
Justin Daley, Development Project Manager for Care UK, said: “We were delighted to be able to collaborate with John Hampden Primary School on this fantastic art project to brighten up our hoardings.
“It was great to welcome the pupils to see their pictures proudly displayed and we look forward to working with the school on future projects.”
Jackie Nichols, Arts Coordinator at John Hampden Primary School, said: "We were excited when Care UK asked us to get creative for their new Thame care home. The children had a great time creating the artwork and are thrilled that it is now displayed for all the community to see.
"We are keen to build on this new relationship with Cuttlebrook Hall, and we look forward to visiting the home once the first residents have moved in next year.”
Designed to enable residents to live active and fulfilled lives, while also promoting independence, the new care home will incorporate space for hobby and leisure activities. The layout of the building will be configured into a series of individual suites, each having a dedicated lounge/dining room to help facilitate the creation of close knit communities.
