Thame’s newest care home sings opens its doors with help of special guests

Residents, team members and the local community were joined by a host of special guests for the grand launch of the town’s newest care home.

Care UK’s Cuttlebrook Hall, on Stock Road, celebrated a special milestone as residents Barbara Warner and Jane King, along with the Mayor of Thame, Councillor Adrian Dite, cut the ribbon to officially open the new care home.

After being treated to a glass of bubbly and some tasty canapes, guests enjoyed live entertainment from Seamour Court Choir, who sang a range of classic party tunes to get everyone into the celebratory spirit. Guests were also invited to have a laugh with a caricaturist, who was on hand to provide a personalised souvenir from the occasion. 

To make it an afternoon to remember, the team at Cuttlebrook Hall also organised a host of exciting activities for the whole family, including bingo and the chance to sample some of the delicious home-cooked meals available at the home.

Commenting on the day, Barbara said: “The grand launch was wonderful!”

Jane added: “It was lovely to meet so many new people and welcome them to Cuttlebrook Hall!”

Alana Corr, Home Manager at Cuttlebrook Hall, added: “Our grand launch party was a huge success and the perfect way to officially open Cuttlebrook Hall.

“Our neighbours have been so warm and welcoming, and we loved meeting so many local people during the event – we already feel like part of the community!

“We were delighted to be joined by our special guests and would like to extend a big thank you to Barbara, Jane and Councillor Adrian Dite for cutting the ribbon. It truly was a day to remember and we hope to welcome everyone again very soon.”
