Karuna Manor Care Home was filled with devotion, joy and spiritual warmth as residents, staff, families and members of the community came together to celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi and warmly welcome Ganpati Bappa into the home.

The celebration marked the arrival of Lord Ganesha, the beloved deity associated with wisdom, prosperity and the removal of obstacles.

For everyone at Karuna Manor, the occasion was not only a religious celebration but also a meaningful opportunity to come together as one family and create special memories with our residents.

The celebration began with a Ganpati welcome and devotional prayers, as residents and staff joined together in prayer and sought the blessings of Ganpati Bappa for happiness, peace, good health and prosperity for everyone in the Karuna Manor family.
