Copperfield Court held its first-ever Summer BBQ event and it was a huge success. Designed to foster community engagement and showcase the vibrant atmosphere of the home, the event brought together residents, their families, and members of the local community for a day of fun, laughter, and connection.
The festivities were highlighted by a delicious BBQ, expertly prepared by Copperfield Court’s talented kitchen team. The tantalising aroma of grilled favourites filled the air, enticing everyone to gather around and enjoy a hearty meal in the beautifully maintained gardens.
One of the day’s most delightful surprises was a special visit from a pair of friendly alpacas, who quickly became the stars of the event. Residents and guests alike were enchanted by the gentle creatures, enjoying the chance to pet and feed them. The alpacas added a unique and memorable touch to the celebration, sparking joy and laughter throughout the afternoon.
In addition to the alpacas, a range of garden games provided entertainment for all ages. From classic lawn games to more modern activities, there was something for everyone to enjoy. The spirit of friendly competition and shared fun made the day even more special.
No summer event would be complete without a sweet treat, and Copperfield Court ensured that everyone’s cravings were satisfied with a visit from a traditional ice cream van. Serving up a variety of ice cream flavours, the van was a hit with residents and guests, offering a refreshing break from the warm summer sun.
Eve, the General Manager of Copperfield Court Care Home, reflected on the event’s success: “This event was a wonderful opportunity to bring our residents, their loved ones, and the community together in a fun, relaxed setting. Seeing everyone enjoy themselves was truly heartwarming.”
Guests at the event also shared their positive experiences. One attendee commented, “The atmosphere was fantastic, and the alpacas were a huge hit! It was a perfect way to spend a summer afternoon with our loved ones.”
Residents were equally enthusiastic about the day’s activities. One resident shared, “I had such a great time, especially with the alpacas. It was lovely to see everyone having so much fun. I can’t wait for the next event!”
