Derby Uncovered, a local organisation dedicated to preserving and promoting Derby’s rich history, recently visited our Middleton Lodge care home to hold a quiz for the residents. The visit aimed to bring them joy and help them learn about the city they live in or are from.
David from Derby Uncovered arrived at the care home well-prepared, equipped with a diverse range of quiz questions that spanned various topics. The questions were thoughtfully curated to cater to different interests and knowledge levels, ensuring an inclusive and enjoyable experience for all residents.
The atmosphere in the room was vibrant and lively, filled with laughter and friendly competition. Residents enthusiastically collaborated to answer the questions, drawing upon their individual knowledge and experiences. Some residents shared fascinating anecdotes and insights into Derby’s past, showcasing their deep-rooted connection to the city. Well done to the team ‘Lucky Five’ for taking the win!
David went above and beyond by taking the time to engage in meaningful conversations with the residents. He listened attentively to their stories, sharing his own experiences and creating a warm and welcoming environment where everyone felt comfortable and valued. The visit was a resounding success, leaving both the residents and volunteers with a sense of fulfilment and a renewed appreciation for the importance of community connections.
Derby Uncovered’s visit to Middleton Lodge exemplifies the organization’s unwavering commitment to making a positive impact in the local community. Derby Uncovered strives to bring people together through its diverse range of initiatives.
