A care home has served up a taste of Wimbledon with a day of tennis-themed fun.
Barton Manor in Wisbech hosted a garden party filled with strawberries, cream, and light-hearted competitions, with guests from Wisbech Grammar School joining residents for the celebrations.
Staff transformed the home’s garden into a mini Centre Court, complete with decorations, sun visors, and plenty of tennis-themed activities.
Residents and students enjoyed swing ball, balloon tennis, target tennis, a Wimbledon quiz, and a raffle.
Everyone received a medal for taking part, with extra prizes awarded for best dressed resident and best Wimbledon hat.
Anne Preston, a resident at Barton Manor, said: "It was a lovely day, especially seeing the children playing and laughing."
Andrea Layton, home manager, said: "Since we first opened the doors of our care home, we’ve been looking for ways to connect with Wisbech residents, particularly through engaging and meaningful experiences.
"This event has done just that."
