An Extra Special Christmas Love Life Café at Barton Lodge
Last month, Barton Lodge Care Home was filled with festive cheer as we hosted our extra special Christmas Love Life Café. It was a heart-warming afternoon that brought together residents, their families, friends, and members of the local community to celebrate the season of goodwill.
The event was filled with laughter, music, and delicious treats, all in support of two wonderful charities: The Samaritans and Alzheimer’s charities. Together, we raised an impressive £145 through our raffle, and we couldn’t be more grateful for everyone’s generosity.
Our talented entertainer, Stephen, took centre stage and enchanted everyone with his beautiful renditions of classic Christmas songs. Armed with lyric sheets, guests and residents sang along, creating a joyful and spirited atmosphere that perfectly captured the holiday spirit.
Of course, no Christmas event would be complete without some delightful festive refreshments. Guests indulged in a selection of cakes and other seasonal treats that were as lovely as they were delicious. “The cakes and entertainment were lovely,” remarked one guest. Another attendee shared, “It went really well; we had such a wonderful time.”
Reflecting on the event’s success, Barton Lodge Care Home Director Samir Patel said: “It was wonderful to see the community come together with our residents and their families to celebrate Christmas. The festive spirit, the music, and the laughter made it a truly memorable afternoon. A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to raising funds for such meaningful causes.”
This year’s Christmas Love Life Café was a shining example of the warmth, community, and joy that Barton Lodge prides itself on fostering. We look forward to welcoming everyone back for more events in the New Year.
