Oakland Care Celebrates the Coronation In Style

The Coronation of King Charles III has been an exciting and memorable weekend for our residents and staff alike. All our homes have celebrated the occasion in different ways and with a variety of exciting activities.

Our CEO Attended!

One of the highlights of this special time was Our CEO, Joanne Balmer (BEM), being invited to be a guest at the King’s Coronation. The event brought together heads of state, kings, and queens from across the globe, celebrities, everyday heroes and family and friends of the King and Queen. Joanne proudly represented Oakland Care at the Coronation and we are so glad she was a part of this historic event and part of something so special!

Speaking about the event, Joanne said: “I was delighted and honoured to attend the King and Queen’s Coronation at Westminster Abbey, proudly representing each and every member of Oakland Care. I had an absolutely amazing day, it was so atmospheric. The service was so well executed, with amazing music and singing throughout too.”
