Let the good vibes roll! Thorrington care home invites local community to a festival to remember

A new festival is coming to Thorrington – and you won’t believe where it’s taking place.

On Sunday 2^nd July, from 11am-3pm, Care UK’s Silversprings, on Tenpenny Hill, is set to hit the right note as it opens its doors to local people for its very own summer music festival.

The fun-filled festival comes as Silversprings celebrates Care Home Open Week, a national initiative that encourages care homes to open their doors and showcase what life in a care home is really like. 

The special event will see guests invited to dance along to live entertainment from Pete George, who will be singing a range of country and rock and roll favourites – sure to get the party started.

There will be a delicious summer barbecue and hog roast available, specially prepared by the home’s talented head chef. Guests will also be able to try their hand at a range of family-friendly garden games, as well as enjoy a tombola and raffle.

Joanne Rix, Home Manager at Silversprings, commented: “We’re delighted to be welcoming the local community to join our summer festival celebrations here at Silversprings.

“Care Home Open Week offers the perfect opportunity to get together with loved ones and enjoy a celebration of live music. Many residents at Silversprings have fond memories of watching live music and attending music festivals in their younger years, and this event will encourage them to look back and relive those happy times.

“We have many music lovers here at Silversprings, and we’re really excited to ring in summer in style with our first ever festival. We can’t wait to strike a chord with residents and the wider community!
