We thoroughly enjoyed the Olympic Games coverage from Paris and were inspired to hold our own event, starting with an Opening Ceremony where residents passed their own Olympic torches onto each other as they made their way through the facility to the soundtrack of ‘Chariots of Fire’. It was incredible to see the pride radiating from their faces as they stood to sing their respective national anthems.
We held our own events including skittles, balloon volleyball, hot potato and more. Originally planned as a one-week event, the residents were having so much fun that we extended our games by another week.
