Mulberry Court, part of the Runwood Homes group, celebrated Halloween in their usual festive style with a variety of activities that brought residents and carers together for an afternoon of fun and community spirit. The event took place over Halloween, providing an opportunity for all involved to enjoy a range of themed activities and make new memories.
The celebration kicked off with a lively Halloween karaoke session, where participants sang their favourite spooky songs. This was followed by a Halloween-themed baking session, where residents and carers worked together to create delicious treats, including spooky cookies and devilish cakes. The fun continued with a couple of rounds of Halloween bingo, complete with eerie prizes, before the afternoon concluded with a delightful Halloween tea party.
The event was not just about having fun but also about creating connections to cherished memories. Many of the residents reflected on the times when they had taken their children trick-or-treating, and the activities helped them relive those moments in a festive setting. By engaging in such familiar community traditions, the celebration fostered a sense of belonging and joy for everyone involved.
Maureen, a resident, commented on the event: “I loved how everyone dressed up for Halloween. It’s always lovely seeing everyone get involved.”
The Halloween celebration at Mulberry Court proved to be a great success, underscoring the home's commitment to offering a variety of activities that help residents stay engaged, connected, and involved in community life.
