Coronation Fit for a King

Excitement is in the air at Chalfont Lodge in Chalfont St Peters where residents and staff have been busy making Coronation-themed decorations and baking up a storm of red, white and blue cakes and pastries with the help of Chef Kim Keefe in preparation for the King’s Coronation on May 6.

Staff and residents at the home put their heads together and came up with a plan for their celebrations fit for a King. Over the bank holiday weekend the home held a Coronation themed quiz with facts on King Charles, a Coronation Tea party and a concert with live entertainment. The whole home came together to celebrate our new King and talk about the new era the country is entering.

Raj Boodhoo, General Manager at Chalfont Lodge said: “We’ve all had such a brilliant time celebrating the Coronation, such a momentous occasion. Our staff and residents love the Royals and so they were all so excited to take part. It has been a real collaborative process - thinking about how we wanted to celebrate, planning our activities, decorating the home and creating all the party food. It was so lovely to be able to invite our friends and family to come and join us for a proper celebration too.”
