Residents from HC-One’s The Cambridge care home in Cambridge enjoyed a special poetry session at renowned The Orchard Tea Garden in Grantchester.
By having tea at The Orchard Residents followed an impressive group of luminaries’ including Rupert Brooke, Sylvia Plath and Virginia Woolf. Residents enjoyed a morning of reading beautiful poems including “The Old Vicarage, Grantchester” by Rupert Brooke.
Everyone had a great time at The Orchard and are looking forward to returning in September to pick apples which they can use to make delicious apple pies.
Tom, a Resident at The Cambridge said:
“It was great to have the opportunity to visit The Orchard Tea Garden again, it is a lovely atmosphere and I loved reading Rupert Brooke poems in such a special location.”
Jean, another Resident at The Cambridge commented:
“The setting was so beautiful, which made reading the poems even better.”
Elizabeth Addae, Home Manager at The Cambridge said:
“It’s lovely that so many of our Residents share a passion for poetry, thank you to my colleagues for organising such a thoughtful and memorable day out.”
