Larchwood Care

Alexander Court Care Home, situated in the heart of Thetford, was joined by the town’s Mayor as it celebrated its 25th anniversary with a garden party.

The home commemorated this special occasion with a BBQ attended by residents and members of the community, including Thetford’s mayor Cllr Stuart Wright. Many guests arrived in silver attire, as nod to the quarter of a century that the home has cared for local people.

The event raised money for the residents’ fund, which pays for additional activities and treats for those living at the home. In between the barbeque and karaoke, Cllr Wright joined the home’s manager Pat Collins in thanking attendees for celebrating the milestone.

Pat Collins, manager at Alexander Court Care Home said: “We are so proud to celebrate 25 years of care. This milestone speaks volumes about the work we do for our residents and the community. It was great to see so many people attend wearing silver to celebrate the occasion.”

Cllr Stuart Wright, Mayor of Thetford, said: “Speaking with the carers, residents and their families, it is clear how much passion the Alexander Court care home team have for their work. I am very pleased to have been able to join them to celebrate this momentous anniversary and of course, enjoy the singing and a burger or two!

“I look forward to visiting again and joining in with some of the amazing activities I have heard all about.”

The home, which is part of Larchwood Homes, has almost 50 ensuite rooms, and in the most recent Care Quality Commission, received an impressive rating of Good.
