LOCAL CARE HOME HOSTS SUMMER BBQ
Staff, residents, relatives and the visitors came together at Queens Manor to enjoy a BBQ that was held in the home’s grounds – with the theme of ‘shirts, shorts and shades’.
The hospitality team at Queens Manor served a selection of BBQ favourites including beef burgers, cajun chicken, halloumi & pepper kebabs, alongside all of the traditional favourites of coleslaw, beetroot, potato salad and sauces which were enjoyed by everyone who came to the event.
Staff and residents enjoyed getting dressed up for the occasion, with some wearing their ‘nicest’ and ‘worst’ holiday shirts, Swim shorts & diamonte shorts, colourful clothing and fun hats! With music playing, drinks flowing and plenty of laughter – it was a lovely day.
