Christmas Fayre Celebrations at Ashlea Mews Care Home

In preparation for the Christmas Fayre, residents and staff at Sunderland Care Home, Ashlea Mews, got creative and made their own “reindeer dust” to sell, everyone was very excited about this as it was a new and exciting experience for most of them.

On the day of the Christmas Fayre, the group sold their reindeer dust alongside homemade calendars. The fayre also saw a tombola, raffle and number boards which went down a treat with all of the attendees, there were smiles and laughter all around as residents and guests socialised with each other. Much to the pleasure of the residents, the children who visited the home for the fayre loved the reindeer dust that they had made.

The festive spirit spread all around the home and the generosity of all the guests meant that a fantastic £415 was raised on the day.

The fayre was a huge success and most importantly residents had a great time. Danny said, “the atmosphere was so nice thumbs up to everyone who organised it!”
