The Grange in Goring-on-Thames hosted a garden party for participants in the Great British Care Cycle Relay during Care Home Open Week.
The event saw the community engage with residents and staff to support the cyclists and shed light on the essential role of social care services.
Dianne Downard, manager at The Grange, said: "We're thrilled to have been a part of this incredible initiative."
"It’s not just about cheering on the cyclists; it's about celebrating the vital role that care homes play in our communities and the dedication of our care workers."
In a festive atmosphere, attendees and neighbours were treated to entertainment, refreshments, and personalised ice cream vouchers for a visiting ice cream van.
The garden party furthered The Grange’s commitment to community engagement.
The Great British Care Cycle Relay is a nationwide event covering 300 miles from Manchester to London.
This initiative underlines the invaluable care services at the heart of every community.
Both scenic and challenging, the route takes cyclists through Cheshire, North Wales, Shropshire, Birmingham, Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, and finally into London.
The Grange, a historic building with a charming garden, along with Lyndhurst, a refurbished Victorian property, offer a comfortable retirement with professional and friendly care at residents’ disposal.
Goring Care Homes, which operates both The Grange and Lyndhurst Residential Home, is known for delivering high-quality care in homely environments.
