Summer Fair at The Grove Care Home raises over £800 for residents’ activities

The Grove Care Home, located near Grimsby, hosted a successful Summer Fair in August, welcoming around 60 visitors from the local community, as well as residents, families, and staff.

The afternoon offered a range of activities and attractions, including summer games, friendly conversations, community connections, and light refreshments for all guests to enjoy. A fun raffle and tombola, along with classic games like the chocolate board and ‘Wine or Not’, helped create a lively and enjoyable atmosphere.

A variety of local stalls supported the event, featuring Catherine Love (homemade textile gifts), Linda Callahan (art and craft supplies), Margaret Lamb (bric-à-brac) Audrey (handmade cards), Karen Wilkinson (crystals), Bertie’s Ice Cream, and John’s Sweet Truck.

Together, the day raised a total of £841.10, which will go towards extra special activities for residents.

Ros Wells, customer relations manager, said: “It’s always a pleasure to organise these events. Our residents and families value the time spent together, and it’s great to involve the wider community in what we do. The Grove Care Home team extends thanks to all stallholders, volunteers, and visitors who contributed to the day’s success.”
