Bamfield Lodge in Bristol marked the King’s official birthday on June 15th in style with a right royal tea party. The Kitchen team whipped up a tasty selection of freshly-baked biscuits, pastries and cakes for the occasion, all washed down with pots of tea. Residents took part in a variety of royal–themed events including a Music afternoon, watching the Trooping of the Colour parade, watching virtual tours of royal palaces and royal tours of different countries.

Sue James, Activities Coordinator at Bamfield Lodge said: “Our residents love a party and they love the King so they all enjoyed the tea and cakes and watching the Trooping of the Colour parade to mark the King’s official birthday.

"Lots of our residents have made cards and written to the King which is a lovely way to wish our monarch many happy returns. Some of our residents are 100+ and were delighted to receive their telegrams from the King, so they wanted to acknowledge his birthday too.”
