Coalville care home hosts open dayHC-One’s The Rowans care home in Coalville, welcomed the local community to celebrate the sixth annual Care Home Open Day in style on 21st April.

This year’s theme is ‘Linking Our Community’, and HC-One has decided to launch a ‘Big Sing’, with HC-One homes across the country forming their own choirs with Residents, their loved ones, colleagues and neighbours. 

The choirs sang ‘You Are My Sunshine’ at the same time, creating a ‘Big Sing’ that brings HC-One homes across the country together in unison.

The family of HC-One homes across the UK took part in activities throughout the day, with The Rowans welcoming a local choir to perform for Residents, visitors and staff. The home also organised a variety of fun-filled events and activities which managed to raise over £100 for the Resident’s fund. 

The Rowans Home Manager, Lisa Borley said:

“Thank you to all who came to take part in Care Home Open Day with us. We all had a wonderful time sitting and chatting with our neighbours and listening to the lovely performance from the choir.”
