Laureate Court Care Home, part of the Runwood Homes Group, recently transformed into a lively Bavarian celebration as residents, families, and staff came together to enjoy their very own Oktoberfest-themed party.
The event was inspired by Lisa Facer, Senior Home Manager at Laureate Court, who had recently returned from Germany after experiencing the real Oktoberfest celebrations. Wanting to share the joy and spirit of the festival, Lisa decided to bring a taste of Germany to Laureate Court.
Residents and their loved ones enjoyed an afternoon filled with live music, dancing, and singing, all accompanied by Bratwurst sausages and steins of alcohol-free beer. The atmosphere was truly fantastic.
Speaking about the event, Lisa Facer said:
“After a recent trip to Germany, enjoying the Oktoberfest celebrations myself, I thought, why not bring Oktoberfest to Laureate Court and let the residents experience a truly wonderful German-themed party?”
The day was a huge success and perfectly captured the spirit of Oktoberfest, bringing people together, celebrating culture, and creating great memories for everyone involved.
