Mountside Care Home’s VE Day Knees-Up Featured in Sussex World!
Mountside Care Home are delighted to share that their spirited VE Day celebration at Mountside Care Home in Hastings was featured in Sussex World / Sussex Express, and it truly captured the essence of the day — full of music, memories, pride, and unity.
Residents, staff, and volunteers came together for a joyous afternoon marking the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe (VE) Day. What a day it was:
-
Reflection with wartime speeches — we listened to the inspiring words of Winston Churchill, paying tribute to the courage and resilience of the WWII generation.
-
Wartime-themed quiz — friendly competition sparked treasured memories and lively conversations among residents.
-
Singalong “Songs That Won the War”, led by Kimberley and Shelagh, our wonderful activity coordinators. With flags waving, voices raised, and even a bit of dancing, the lounge was alive with 1940s spirit.
Community and connection are at the heart of life at Mountside — and this celebration showcased our shared values of unity, joy, and care. We are very happy with seeing this story in Sussex World.
