Britain's What's On Event Guide
Cardiff care home hosts sports day for local community
On Saturday 29th June, from 2pm-4pm, Care UK’s Llys Cyncoed, on Cyncoed Road, will be bringing Paris to Cardiff as it opens its doors for local people to enjoy their own version of the Games.
The event comes as Llys Cyncoed 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 knockout tennis tournaments.
There will be fun for all the family with a garden party, complete with an ice cream van and summer barbeque cooked by the home’s talented Head Chef. Sure to get the party started, there will be live entertainment from guitar and ukulele duo Omega Two.
Virgil Frincu, General Manager at Llys Cyncoed, 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 Cardiff, 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 Llys Cyncoed.
“The day not only promises a lot of laughter and enjoyment for all involved but, is also 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!”
