Residents of Liberty House Care Home, part of the Runwood Homes Group, enjoyed a wonderful day out on 13th February, visiting the Tropical Butterfly House in Sheffield. The trip, organised by Lifestyle Coordinators Jody and Kelley, brought smiles, laughter, and a chance for residents to experience something new and exciting.
The idea for the outing stemmed from a conversation with resident Freda, who had fond memories of the attraction. To make her day extra special, staff decided to surprise her with a visit—a gesture that left her over the moon.
Residents spent the day exploring the butterfly house, learning about different animals, and engaging with nature. The atmosphere was full of joy, with plenty of smiles and laughter. A particularly memorable moment came when Freda and Joyce bravely held a stick insect, giggling as they described how it tickled their hands.
A local community member praised the event, saying: “It is lovely to see your residents having a great time and being engaged. Seeing them smile is great to see. You do a fantastic job.”
Liberty House is committed to creating meaningful experiences for its residents, ensuring they remain active, engaged, and connected with the wider community. With days out like this, the home continues to prioritise fun, social interaction, and overall wellbeing.
