Olympic spirit at care home

Residents and staff at Fenchurch House Care Home in Spalding Common have been enjoying their very own Olympic Games.
They’ve been taking on a range of Olympics and sport-themed activities.
Named the ‘Country Court Oomph-Olympics’ (through a combination of the two companies running the event), residents have been trying their hand at Boccia, bop-fit, artistic swimming and other events.
Fenchurch House hosted an Opening Ceremony with afternoon tea, complete with passing of an Olympic torch to mark the opening of the event.
To set the scene the home was decorated with flags and a banner made by the residents.
A spokesman said: “Activity coordinators from Country Court, the operator behind Fenchurch House, have been receiving training from partner activity provider, Oomph Wellness to help run the events.
“Each home across the country will be leading residents in Boccia, bop-fit, artistic swimming and an open event of their choice. Fenchurch House got their games underway with an afternoon of balloon volleyball complete with a singalong to get everyone feeling motivated.”
