With the Olympics fast approaching, a local care home is limbering up for its very own sporting tournament.
About this Event

On Wednesday 24th July, from 11am to 4pm, Care UK’s Millers Grange, on Curbridge Road, will be bringing Paris to Witney as it opens its doors for local people to enjoy their own version of the Games.


The event comes as Millers Grange joins The Big Care UK Sports Day, which sees over 130 Care UK homes across the UK host sports days for the local community and showcase what life in a care home is really like.


Kickstarting the day will be an opening ceremony with a display from Witney Karate Club. Guests can then soak up the sporting atmosphere and, for those daring to compete, have the chance to win their own gold medals with an afternoon of fun and games, including egg-and-spoon races, basketball, and ball pong.


Visitors can also enjoy a traditional summer barbecue cooked by the home’s talented head chef, which they can enjoy while listening to live entertainment from performer, Cody.


Alison Parry, Home Manager at Millers Grange, said: “We’re delighted to be welcoming the local community to join our own sporting celebrations.


“We are part of a strong community here in Witney, and days like this are a fantastic way of bringing us all together for a little healthy competition and to celebrate this year’s summer of sport, all while showcasing exactly what life is like here at Millers Grange.


“The day not only promises a lot of laughter and enjoyment for all involved, but also is an excellent way for residents to meet and mingle with lots of new faces – and some familiar ones – while keeping active. We can’t wait until kick-off!”
