Breast Cancer Awareness fundraiser day at Lukestone Care Home

All over the world, October is being celebrated as Breast Cancer Awareness Month and here at Lukestone Care Home we wanted to get involved in this important cause.

on Saturday 22 October, we decorated our main lounge with a big charity stall displaying beautifully packaged items, generously donated to us by the families of our residents. From books and plush toys to gift cases, we had them all! We sold these at our stall alongside the delicious cakes and cupcakes baked by our Chef Mandy and her team.

When our residents came to our stall, they could choose a cupcake which we then packaged for them. They all loved tasting the delicious sweet treats on offer!

Our staff and families kindly bought gifts and donated money. Some bought cupcakes and shared them with our residents too.

Our ‘game board‘ caught the attention of our staff and we collected more donations for the games as they were being played, at £2 a go!

Pink Day fun and games at Lukestone Care Home

The highlight of the day was our entertainer, Cheryl King. Her performance was jolly and fun and her energy brought excitement to the room, as she got us up from our chairs and onto the dance floor with our pink wigs on!

As she moved from one corner of the room to another dancing barefooted, all our residents and staff clapped and moved to the sound of her beautiful voice. Later, she donated to the charity and bought a few cupcakes, showing her support to the cause. Thank you Cheryl!

Together, we raised a total of £153 during our charity event. Our Lukestone family appreciates the cancer research teams all over the world who have been hard at work doing their best to prevent and fight cancer.

A very memorable day, in support of an incredibly important cause. Thank you to everyone who came and supported this special event at our Home.
