Brandon House Care Home in Coventry is honouring the longstanding connection between its residents and Coventry City Football Club with a new tribute to the team’s local supporters.
Many residents of the home have been passionate Coventry City fans for years, with some even being loyal season ticket holders throughout their lives.
This connection was highlighted recently by a thoughtful donation from a family member, who contributed a framed photograph of the football team for the home's wall. The picture not only serves as a testament to the residents' shared love of the club but also brings a sense of nostalgia to those who have cheered on the team for decades.
The tribute to Coventry City fans doesn't stop there. The home has also honoured the legacy of former resident Laurence Harvey, who played for the team during the 1950s and 1960s. Laurence's memory has been lovingly preserved with a dedicated tribute, ensuring that the footballer’s history with Coventry City lives on at Brandon House.
These heartfelt gestures reflect the care home's commitment to celebrating its residents' pasts and the meaningful connections they’ve forged over the years. The new wall displays have already sparked fond memories and deepened the sense of community among the residents.
