With the Olympics fast approaching, a local care home is limbering up for its very own sporting tournament.
On Thursday 25th July from 2pm, Care UK’s Prince George House on Mansbrook Boulevard will be bringing Paris to Ipswich as it opens its doors for local people to enjoy their own version of the Games.
The event comes as Prince George House joins The Big Care UK Sports Day, which sees over 130 Care UK homes across the UK host sports days for the local community and showcase what life in a care home is really like.
Guests can soak up the sporting atmosphere and, for those daring to compete, have the chance to win their own gold medals with an afternoon of fun and games, including egg-and-spoon races, tug of war and relay races.
Visitors can also enjoy light refreshments alongside the games which are open to relatives, residents, team members, and the local community.
Luminita Triff, Home Manager at Prince George House, said: “We’re delighted to be welcoming the local community to join our own sporting celebrations.
“We are part of a strong community here in Ipswich, and days like this are a fantastic way of bringing us all together for a little healthy competition and to celebrate this year’s summer of sport, all while showcasing exactly what life is like here at Prince George House.
“The day not only promises a lot of laughter and enjoyment for all involved, but also is an excellent way for residents to meet and mingle with lots of new faces – and some familiar ones – while keeping active. We can’t wait until kick-off!”
Prince George House is a modern purpose-built care home providing full-time residential, nursing, and dementia care, as well as short-term respite care. Designed to enable residents to live enjoyable and fulfilling lives, the care home has a choice of lounges and dining rooms, along with facilities such as an activity room, cinema and hair salon.
