Bayleaf care home brings the local community together

Staff, residents, relatives and the local community came together at Bayleaf Care Home, in Huntingdon, to enjoy an open day that was held at the home on Saturday 27th June. 

Bayleaf hosted a variety of activities throughout the day, including a visit from a local radio station, live entertainment and a delicious BBQ courtesy of the in-house catering team, all of which were enjoyed by everyone who came to the event.

Resident, Margaret Davies, said, “I thoroughly enjoyed it. I was surrounded by lots of great people, and the refreshments kept flowing. The weather was glorious throughout the day. Staff did a great job, not just on the day, but organising the event and getting everyone together.”
