Blooming wonderful win for Mansfield care home in gardening competition

This year’s competition saw a number of outstanding creations submitted from HC-One’s care homes acrpss the UK.

And Berry Hill’s pots and baskets were judged the best this year.

There was a wonderful selection of colourful flowers which were proudly presented in an array of containers.

These were sat alongside hand-painted pebbles and stones that residents had decorated.

The winning pot at Berry Hill was designed by resident Barbara Grime and her family generously donated £100 worth of vouchers for her and the home to buy new plants and flowers to spruce up the garden area.

Lilliam Plumpton, another Berry Hill resident, commented: “We all did marvellously well.”

The residents and staff were all delighted to have won and have now received their certificate and plaque which will be proudly put on display.

The judges said they were incredibly grateful to all entrants for taking part and were especially impressed with this year’s prize winners.

HC-One has had a great success with this year’s competition and look forward to running it again in subsequent years to come.

Berry Hill Park is a purpose-built home offering residential, nursing and memory care, for those living with dementia.
