Britain's What's On Event Guide
Going for gold! Church Crookham care home to host sports day for commu
On Friday 26th July from 12 noon-4pm, Care UK’s Bourley Grange on Bourley Road will be bringing Paris to Church Crookham as it opens its doors for people to enjoy their own version of the Games.
The event is part of The Big Care UK Sports Day, which sees more than 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 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.
Visitors can also enjoy a traditional summer barbecue cooked by the home’s talented Head Chef, Darwin Serrano.
Racquel Merdegia, General Manager at Bourley Grange, 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 Church Crookham, 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 Bourley Grange.
“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!”
