Going for gold! Cambridge care home hosts sports day for community

With the Olympics fast approaching, a local care home is limbering up for its very own sporting tournament.

On Saturday 27th July from 1.30pm-4pm, Care UK’s Heathlands House on Bullen Close will be bringing Paris to Cambridge as it opens its doors to local people to enjoy their own version of the Games.

The event comes as Heathlands 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 and three-legged races and inflatable gladiator-style games.

Visitors can also enjoy refreshments alongside a raffle, and they’ll be plenty to keep the whole family entertained with a sport inspired arts and crafts session, including making bunting, torches, and medals.

Razvan Stanbeca, Home Manager at Heathlands 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 Cambridge, 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 Heathlands 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!”
