(Stout Sampling) – BEER infused with chocolate and marshmallows were on offer for residents of a Wokingham care home.
A stout sampling afternoon was one of the events organised by West Oak Care Home in Murray Road. There were a number of flavours on offer, and staff said that there were some mixed opinions about each of the tastes.
The success of the afternoon means that more tasting sessions are being planned for next year.
It is not the only activity the home has organised. A Covid-safe corridor sing-a-long ensured everyone could enjoy the sound of music.
Geoffrey Honour, the general manager at West Oak Care Home, said that singing brings so much joy and happiness to the residents.
“In these unprecedented times, providing a range of engaging physical, mental and spiritual activities for our residents is more important than ever,” he said.
“Our residents really enjoyed this past week’s events.
“Our varied life enrichment programme for residents includes ways to stay in contact with relatives digitally, such as Skype, and we have new ways to keep residents active, while ensuring that the group activities are smaller, adhering to social distancing advice.”
And Mr Honour added that West Oak is still able to take admissions for those that need care over the next four weeks.
