A CITY care home celebrated its first anniversary in style this week.

Care UK’s Perry Manor on Charles Hastings Way welcomed family of residents and members of the public through its doors last weekend for a birthday garden party.

The event featured a variety of activities for people of all ages to enjoy, including boules, table-top board games and live music.

Visitors also enjoyed a glass of Pimms, a slice of birthday cake and picnic-themed canapés.

Mike Dearn, home manager at Perry Manor, said: “Our first anniversary was a really exciting milestone and it’s great that it coincided with Care Home Open Day and we had the opportunity to celebrate with so many people from the local community.

“Although our home is always open to guests, it was wonderful to have a day to really celebrate with visitors, residents and colleagues alike and show all the good work we do. It was pleasure to meet everyone and to give visitors the opportunity to take a look around Perry Manor. We all had a wonderful day and hopefully we have demonstrated how modern care homes are warm and inviting while also strengthening our links with the local community here in Worcester.
