Held in the home’s welcoming tearoom, the event featured a delicious spread of freshly prepared sandwiches and cakes, created by the home’s talented kitchen team. A particular highlight was the scones, baked the day before by residents during their baking group, which were served with cream and jam and proved to be a firm favourite.

Entertainment was provided by singer Becky Gee, who delighted guests with classic hits from the 1950s through to the 1980s, creating a joyful and nostalgic atmosphere that had everyone smiling and singing along.
