Summer Garden Party

What a lovely afternoon at our Summer Garden Part.! It was wonderful to see everyone enjoying the music from the Misfits Band in the sunshine, along with good food, refreshments, and plenty of dancing and laughter.

Bayleaf Care Home

Two homes, one amazing afternoon

Some of our favourite activities at Bayleaf are the ones we get to spend with our friends from our sister homes, and today we were delighted to welcome our wonderful friends from Hilton Park once again.

It was lovely to see everyone sitting together, chatting, laughing, and enjoying each other’s company. The relaxed atmosphere soon turned into one of friendly competition when our quiz began, with everyone eager to put their knowledge to the test!

After all the excitement, we enjoyed a well-earned hot drink and some tasty snacks before saying our goodbyes as our Hilton Park friends headed back to Bottisham.

A big thank you for visiting us today. We always enjoy spending time together and can’t wait to welcome you back again soon.
