On Thursday 27th August, from 12-4pm, Care UK’s Asterbury Place will open its doors to families and neighbours for a food festival, inviting guests to tuck in and celebrate the nation’s shared love of great cuisine, community and connection.
Guests can look forward to sampling a selection of residents' favourite dishes from around the world, from kangaroo burgers to bratwurst hot dogs, all prepared by the home’s Head Chef using local ingredients.
The events are part of the ‘A Taste of Home’ initiative, which will see all Care UK homes host foodie-themed celebrations and share what life in a care home is really like.
Each festival will showcase sustainable, community-focused initiatives while celebrating the diversity and creativity within the homes, from residents’ favourite recipes and traditional dishes to seasonal menus featuring locally sourced ingredients.

Each home offers full-time residential and dementia care, as well as short-term respite care. The homes incorporate plenty of space for hobby and leisure activities, while the layout of the buildings are configured into a series of individual suites, each having a dedicated lounge/dining room to facilitate the creation of close-knit communities.
