Buckinghamshire care home celebrates 10th anniversary
Residents and staff have celebrated the 10th anniversary of Fremantle Court Care Home in Aylesbury.
Mayor of Aylesbury, Councillor Steven Lambert was the guest of honour at the special event.
Care home manager, Claire Watson, said: “We are so pleased to share these celebrations with the whole community. Fremantle Court has been ‘home’ to so many families and we join hands today as one big family.
“We are grateful to Councillor Steven Lambert for joining us as I know his Gold Chain and regalia is so admired and respected by all. The residents love trying it on. My whole team take great pride in caring for our residents who’s care needs can be simple through to nursing and dementia. We look forward to serving the community for decades to come.”
All the guests were treated to a special show from local, and famous, singer Jan of 60s band Marmalade who sang his famous chart hit, Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da.
Resident Alan Bann said: “Fremantle Court is a lovely home, and the staff are really caring. I feel comfortable and happy. The home has enabled me to keep my independence as I like to go out on my own in my electric wheelchair. I love the summer months and spending time in the garden and catching the rays. I’m still quite young but over the years have formed friendships with residents and staff. Long may this continue.”
Fremantle Court is operated by The Fremantle Trust which merged with The Orders of St John Care Trust in February.
