Care home organises virtual trips

CARE homes across Glasgow are offering elderly people the chance to go on a ‘virtual holiday’. Bupa care homes are hosting a range of events to show pensioners they don’t need to travel far to have a break.
Staff at Ailsa Craig Care Home, in Cessnock, Glasgow, are inviting people to their event next Wednesday.

As part of its “Doon the Water” themed virtual trip, there will be a paddling pool, fish and chips, and ice cream.

It is a nationwide campaign which will see residents and staff take part in activities such as language classes and food tasting sessions.

The Bupa Care Homes Summer Holiday will run from August 5 until August 11.
