Care home residents celebrated Easter with an Easter egg hunt, a hot cross bun tasting, and a visit from nursery children.
Crandon Springs Care Home in Wells hosted a week of activities for its residents, designed to bring generations together and spread festive cheer.
Events began with a themed hot cross bun tasting, where residents sampled an array of flavours including salted caramel and chocolate, strawberries and clotted cream, and apple and cinnamon.
After careful consideration, the indulgent salted caramel and chocolate bun and the traditional extra fruity variety were named joint favourites.
Darius Ivana, Crandon Springs-Barchester Healthcare Operations Manager, said: "Easter is always a lovely time for bringing people together, and it has been wonderful to see our residents enjoying such a variety of activities.
"From sharing laughter over the bun tasting to welcoming the nursery children into our home, these activities create real joy and meaningful connections for everyone involved."
The celebrations continued in the care home's café, where the chef team prepared a selection of Easter cakes and cupcakes for residents and visitors to enjoy.
On Easter Sunday, the activities team delivered chocolate eggs and treats throughout the home, ensuring that everyone felt included in the festivities.
A highlight of the week was a visit from children at Rockers and Rollers Day Nursery, who took part in a colourful Easter egg hunt in the care home's garden.
The children eagerly searched for hidden eggs and exchanged them for chocolate treats, which were handed out by resident Rose, affectionately known as 'Little Gran' to her great-grandson who attends the nursery.
The visit ended with a cheerful singalong, bringing smiles to residents and children alike.
Crandon Springs Care Home is part of Barchester Healthcare, one of the UK’s largest care providers.
