The café is designed to be a social hub for the local community to meet and support one another. Each month, the care home hosts dementia café events where advice is shared among carers, families and those living with the syndrome.
A friendship café will also be run monthly to bring like-minded people together through a shared love of activities including arts and crafts, games and talks.
The Mayor of Harrow, Councillor Anjana Patel, will be cutting the ribbon to declare the café officially open. Healthcare professionals will also be in attendance, providing expert talks and advice for local families.
Guests will be greeted with refreshments prepared by the head chef, Andrei Zaharia, and will be able enjoy violinist Maria Valez and the opportunity to find out exactly what life is like at Buchanan Court.
Laurentiu Iordachescu, Home Manager at Buchanan Court, said: “We are delighted to be marking the official opening of our new café by celebrating with our neighbours, relatives and special guests. We can’t wait to show everyone the welcoming, friendly atmosphere we’ve created.
