Asquith Hall celebrates their first anniversary with a dash of glamour!

The ladies, gentlemen, and staff at Asquith Hall celebrated their 1st anniversary as part of the Towerview Care family. It has been exactly one year since the Towerview Care Group took over the nursing and mental health care home in Todmorden.

Entertainers Maria Manchester and Bernie Costello provided a touch of glamour to the party with a mixture of songs old and new to cater to everyone’s tastes.

They performed in front of the home in the warm afternoon sunshine with many of the ladies, gentlemen and staff jiving and waltzing around the courtyard.

The homes kitchen team whipped up a fantastic spread of tasty treats, a local ice cream van popped a long to keep us all cool and the activities team made everyone had a fantastic day.

Gemma Foster, Asquith Hall’s registered manager, said, “Thank you to everyone that attended yesterday’s celebrations at Asquith to mark the 1st anniversary of joining the Towerview Care family. The day was a huge success and thoroughly enjoyed by all.

We would like to give thanks to our wonderful ladies and gentlemen for making the day a truly rememberable one! Between the copious amounts of ice cream, singing and jiving, you brought much joy to the day and we are glad we managed to capture so many smiley faces to treasure.

A huge thank you to our truly amazing staff teams! You all shine bright like diamonds daily and we could not do this without your valued support, commitment, love, and care.
