Truffles & Tea

Add a touch of indulgence for the second sitting of the day with a chocolate truffle-making class, followed by an elegant Mother’s Day afternoon tea. Think warm scones, finger sandwiches and delicate pâtisserie, served with a choice of prosecco, mocktails or teas. Collaborating with a local chocolatier adds an extra sparkle and cross-promotion potential – a win-win for both businesses. It’s a fun, relaxed activity that encourages conversation with customers, creates memories and helps you fill up bookings.

Care, creativity and connection

Adapt your Mother’s Day experiences for care home residents and their families, to turn an ordinary Sunday into a heartwarming celebration.

Floral fun

Personalised menus, table flowers or family invitations can all turn the day into a shared celebration. These small gestures can help residents feel valued, families involved and bring warmth and joy to the day.

Candles & dinner

End the evening on a glowing note with a candle-painting workshop and cosy, laid-back dinner. Ideal for smaller, more intimate gatherings, the gentle, sensory nature of the activity creates a soothing atmosphere. The finished candles make perfect take-home keepsakes – a beautiful reminder of a Mother’s Day well spent.

“We’ve found that many of our guests visit a venue for the first time because of one of our classes. Adding a creative class, such as one of our Candle Painting workshops, encourages guests to stay longer and engage more fully with the experience. Going out for dinner is easy any day of the week, but including a hands-on activity for Mother’s Day gives people extra time to relax and catch-up in a memorable way”
