There was something a little different waiting for our wonderful residents on 19th July 2026, as St David’s Care Home welcomed an ice cream van to the home to celebrate National Ice Cream Day.
We arranged an ice cream van visit, giving our wonderful residents and our team the chance to enjoy a traditional ice cream right on our doorstep!
Mary, Sheila, Brian and Paul were among our residents making the most of the visit, joined by our team, including Sukri and Michaela. Having the ice cream van arrive at the home made the day feel that little bit different, with many of our residents commenting on how much they had enjoyed the nostalgia the van brought.

Reflecting on the morning, our incredible Home Manager, Satinda, said,
“It was lovely to see our residents enjoying their ice creams. We hope it is something we can do again in the future.”
At St David’s Care Home, we enjoy finding new ways to celebrate special occasions throughout the year. Whether it is welcoming an ice cream van to our home or marking national awareness days together, our team is always looking for simple ideas that give our residents something different to enjoy.
