On Tuesday 19th December, from 1pm-4pm, Care UK’s Oakfield Croft, on Oakfield, is helping older members of the community to get into the festive spirit by joining residents and team members for special Christmas dinner, co-hosted with befriending charity Cyril Flint.
Studies have shown that almost 1.5 million older people feel lonelier at Christmas than any other time of year*. To help tackle loneliness, Care UK has launched its Care to Share initiative, designed to support older people through the festive season.
More than 100 Care UK homes nationwide will be taking part to give older members of the community a safe and sociable space where they can enjoy some festive fun and good company – whether it’s singing along to Christmas carols or watching a Christmas movie with a mince pie.
At Oakfield Croft, the team have been hard at work spreading Christmas cheer by adorning the home with festive decorations and warming up the ovens. Those attending can expect a delicious three-course Christmas dinner with all the trimmings, specially prepared by the home’s chef, as well as mince pies and mulled wine. There will also be some classic carols playing, and traditional Christmas games to take part in.
