Anyone for tennis? Local care home residents celebrate watching their favourite sporting fixture
Residents and staff at Broadway Halls care home in Dudley were at the ready for the Wimbledon Final.
Tennis fans in the home, including residents Lyn and Ian, were delighted to be able to watch this year’s 138th Championships. Residents and staff got together to watch the matches and even participate in their own version in the sunshine. They then all celebrated together by having afternoon tea and cake whipped up by head chef Olivia for the occasion.
Danica Chugh, General Manager at the home, said: “We’ve had a fantastic time celebrating the Final at Wimbledon, it is always a firm favourite with our residents. We have watched it every day since 30th June and enjoyed every minute!”
Resident, Connie commented: “I absolutely love watching Wimbledon, it is definitely my favourite sporting fixture. It was lovely to celebrate its return with all my friends here and enjoy having a go ourselves in the Broadway Court finals, it was great afternoon of fun the residents and the staff joined in the fun.”
