Handley House Care Home to host family fun day with farm animals

HC-One’s Handley House Care Home in York is excited to invite the local community to a family fun day on Friday 19th September from 1pm to 3pm. Visitors can enjoy a special visit from The Purple Pig Company, who will be bringing a delightful selection of farm animals, including pigs, sheep, and more, for an interactive and educational experience in the garden.

Following a summer full of engaging activities, Handley House is preparing for the cosy autumn months with events that celebrate the end of summer and look ahead to seasonal festivities such as the Harvest Festival. This event is part of the home’s ongoing commitment to providing stimulating, joyful experiences for residents and the wider community.

Handley House is one of over 280 kind and cosy HC-One homes across the UK. Families interested in joining the Handley House community can benefit from a special offer: four weeks for the price of three for new residents who move in before November 31.

Embrace the warmth of a kind community this Autumn. Join us at Handley House Care Home and discover the vibrant, supportive, and welcoming life that residents enjoy every day.
