Going for gold! Harrow care home host sports day for the local community
  • Sudbury Hill, Harrow
    HA1 3AR
  • Saturday 27th July 2:00pm until 4:00pm
With the Olympics fast approaching, a local care home is limbering up for its very own sporting tournament.

On Saturday 27th July from 2 pm, Care UK’s Buchanan Court, on Sudbury Hill, will be bringing Paris to Harrow as it opens its doors for local people to enjoy their own versions of the Games.

 

The event comes as Buchanan Court joins The Big Care UK Sports Day, which sees over 130 Care UK homes across the UK host sports days for the local community and showcase what life in a care home is really like.

 

Guests can soak up the sporting atmosphere and, for those daring to compete, have the chance to win their own gold medals with afternoons of fun and games, including egg-and-spoon races, tug of war, and knockout tennis tournaments.

 

Visitors can also enjoy light refreshments alongside the games which are open to relatives, residents, team members, and the local community.

 

Esther Adams, Home Manager at Buchanan Court, said: “We’re delighted to be welcoming the local community to join our own sporting celebrations. 

 

“We are part of a strong community here in Harrow, and days like this are a fantastic way of bringing us all together for a little healthy competition and to celebrate this year’s summer of sport, all while showcasing exactly what life is like at Care UK care homes.

 

“The day not only promises a lot of laughter and enjoyment for all involved, but also is an excellent way for residents to meet and mingle with lots of new faces – and some familiar ones – while keeping active. We can’t wait until kick-off!”
