Earlier this week, residents from Park View and Lee Mount Care Homes enjoyed a lively and memorable day out at a live rugby match, cheering on our local team — the Halifax Panthers.
The weather may have been a little wet, but it didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits. For several residents, this was their very first time attending a live rugby game — and it turned out to be a fantastic experience from start to finish. From the energy in the stadium to the excitement of the crowd, everyone was fully immersed in the match day atmosphere.
To top it all off, the Halifax Panthers secured a brilliant win, which made the day even more special.
We were warmly welcomed by the dedicated teams at the Halifax Panthers Foundation, along with the LDSL and PDRL squads, whose enthusiasm, kindness, and inclusivity made the visit truly memorable. Their support throughout the day was greatly appreciated by both residents and staff.
Days like this go far beyond entertainment. Outings to local events provide residents with valuable opportunities to connect with their community, explore new interests, and enjoy meaningful shared experiences. It was wonderful to see so many smiling faces, lively conversations, and lasting memories being made.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone at the Halifax Panthers and the Panthers Foundation for their incredible hospitality. We’re proud to continue building strong partnerships that enrich the lives of our residents and promote inclusive, community-based living.
