Wacky Hair Day raises smiles at Butterfly Lodge ahead of Easter Fair

Staff at Butterfly Lodge care home in Plymouth marked the lead-up to Easter with a Wacky Hair Day, donning quirky styles to raise a few smiles and collect raffle prizes.

Team members turned heads with their creative and chaotic hairstyles, raising smiles among residents while gathering chocolate and wine for the Easter raffle.

Deputy manager Sarah McCaffrey said: “We wanted to do something fun and light-hearted to get everyone in the mood for next week’s Easter Fair, and Wacky Hair Day was the perfect excuse.

“The team really went all out - we had everything from coloured extensions and quirky clips to a heart design with leopard spots.

"The winning look came from Butterfly Lodge’s Kirsten Bradbury, whose multi-braid creation took the top spot in the competition and was rewarded with a large cream Easter egg for her efforts."

The Easter Fair will take place at Butterfly Lodge on Saturday 12th April, from 3pm to 5pm and will include a raffle, refreshments, and stalls.

“All the proceeds from the fair will go towards activities and treats for our residents,” added Sarah.

“We’d love to see lots of friendly faces from the local area - it’s a great way to bring everyone together and celebrate the season.”

Butterfly Lodge is run by award-winning dementia care provider Camelot Care, who also have homes in Bridgwater, Plymouth and Wellington, with a fifth due to open in Holsworthy, Devon later this year.
