Care home residents ‘delighted’ by indoor Christmas market
Staff at Foxholes Care Home in Hertfordshire created a Christmas market inside the home so that residents wouldn’t miss out.
Residents at a care home in Hertfordshire were “delighted” by an indoor Christmas fair held inside their residence.
Staff at Foxholes Care Home in Hitchin put together a socially distanced Christmas market inside the home as its residents will miss out on the local markets due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Vendors set up their stalls at the home while the residents were isolating before leaving and allowing residents to explore the indoor market safely.
Each stall holder donated an item from their stand to a Christmas raffle which will raise money for an accessible minibus.
“We pulled it off and the residents were delighted.
“While we understand things aren’t normal this year, we continue to try our best to keep our residents connected with the community, of which they are an integral part.”
