Care home launches Blue Light Breakfast Club

Romford Care Home has launched a Blue Light Breakfast Club for local emergency services.

A care home has launched a monthly breakfast club as a thank you to its local emergency services.

Romford Care Home in Neave Crescent will hold the breakfast club on the first Friday of the month, after the idea was thought up by both residents and staff members.

Every month, the event will be hosted by a member of staff, with tea, coffee, freshly-baked cakes and bacon baps cooked by chef Pauline Ibhawaegbele.

"The purpose of the Blue Light Breakfast Club helps foster a great partnership with the first responders of Havering and builds relationships, while ensuring we are openly supporting the great work that they do within our community," Michelle di Bella, general manager, said.

The first Breakfast Club was hosted by Dorota Pukacz, home aministrator.

Customer relations manager Tracy Smith played a pivotal role in the organisation and success of the event and said: “It’s amazing what a great response we got from everyone who turned up. The ambulance crews were especially grateful as they all said how it’s very hard to get a hot drink between calls and they loved our reusable mugs and said they would now go everywhere with them.”
