Residents at RMBI Care Co. Home Cadogan Court, in Exeter, stepped into the spotlight and embraced a touch of royal glamour during a special Kings and Queens themed photoshoot.

Staff member Hannah Bromell, who is also a professional photographer, led the fun event. She regularly creates themed experiences for residents as part of her creative programme. This time, Cadogan Court was transformed into a fairy-like regal setting, inviting residents and their families to dress up, pose for portraits and enjoy a memorable afternoon together.

The theme was promoted throughout the Home so that relatives could join in the celebrations, making it a shared occasion filled with laughter, pride and togetherness. Even Humphrey, an eight-month year old Golden Retriever owned by Activities Coordinator Corinne, wanted to visit the whimsical setting.

The event was designed not only as a creative activity, but also as a way to boost confidence, encourage social interaction and create lasting memories for residents and their loved ones. Staff members also joined in the fun, with Deputy Home Manager Caroline taking part and helping to bring the theme to life.

Clare Walker, Cadogan Court’s Home Manager, says:
“Events like this are about celebrating our residents and creating joyful moments. Seeing everyone dressed up and smiling was wonderful. It strengthened our already-present sense of community. We love finding new ways to spark creativity and bring families together.”
