Chelmunds Court Care Home, part of the Runwood Homes Group, was delighted to send a group of its residents to a vibrant Summer Fete held on Tuesday 8th July, generously hosted and supported by the local Take Me Taxi Company. This special day out provided residents with a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the sunny weather, socialise, and participate in music, dancing, and community festivities.
The residents, accompanied by Chelmunds Court staff, were warmly welcomed by the team at Take Me Taxi Company, who kindly organised transport to and from the event. Ensuring everyone’s comfort and safety throughout the day, the team also encouraged participation in the lively celebrations.
John, a resident at Chelmunds Court, reflected on the experience, commenting “It was really lovely to be out and enjoying the sun and coffee.”
The event was characterised by a joyful, energetic atmosphere filled with laughter, music, and dancing. Highlights included sharing slices of cake together and seeing the residents engage happily with others outside of the home environment.
This initiative exemplifies the strong partnerships between Chelmunds Court and local organisations like Take Me Taxi Company, which play a vital role in enhancing the quality of life for residents by providing meaningful and refreshing community experiences.
Take Me Taxi Company’s invitation and generous support made this memorable outing possible, demonstrating their commitment to giving back to the community and enriching the lives of older adults.
