On Saturday 5th July from 10am–3pm, Care UK’s Ambleside in Dodwell is supporting charity Race Against Dementia with a fun-filled day, all while championing the vital cause of raising funds for dementia research.
The event will feature team members giving car washes for £5. As they wait for their car to be washed, attendees will have the opportunity to relax and enjoy a selection of refreshments in Ambleside’s newly refurbished coffee shop.
Adding a touch of vintage flair to the day, there will also be a classic car show featuring a variety of stunning vehicles.
Inside the home, visitors will be able to enjoy a range of racing-themed activities including a competitive round of Scalextric, where both children and adults can take part in friendly racing action. For those who want to watch the excitement of Formula 1 unfold, the Silverstone qualifying race coverage will be shown in the home’s cinema, keeping everyone in the racing spirit.
This event forms part of Care UK's Grand Prix, which involves care homes across the country participating in racing-themed events to raise vital funds for Race Against Dementia.
