Residents shine at Oscars-themed celebration at The Grove Care Home

Residents at The Grove Care Home in Waltham, near Grimsby, recently enjoyed a touch of Hollywood glamour during a dazzling Oscars-themed celebration, held as part of Country Court’s month-long Oscar’s festivities across all its care homes this March.

The special afternoon saw residents, their families, and staff dressed in their finest attire, stepping out to celebrate residents’ unique personalities and talents. Awards presented included categories like ‘Most Helpful’, ‘Greatest Laugh’, ‘Most Creative’, and ‘Most Active’ – each carefully chosen to highlight residents’ characteristics.

Guests were treated to delicious canapés and sparkling refreshments as they mingled, posed in front of a glitzy photo backdrop, and enjoyed the lively, festive atmosphere. The event was met with warm praise and heartfelt comments from attendees, including: “Well done everyone, you make the residents feel proud and privileged. Such a beautiful place for them.”

Home manager Cheryl Shorter reflected on the event, saying: “Life at The Grove is vibrant and community focused. We offer residents a wide range of daily activities, outings, and high-quality, personalised care. With beautifully designed living spaces, welcoming gardens, and a supportive atmosphere, The Grove is truly a place our residents can call home.

“Events like this Oscars celebration reflect the spirit of our home—bringing residents, families, and staff together to share joy and create unforgettable memories. Seeing the happiness and laughter of our residents reminds us why we do what we do. Their wellbeing is at the heart of everything.”
