Heartwarming Concert Brings Joy to Residents
Penrose Court Care Home experienced a magical and unforgettable afternoon on Sunday 7th July, when the renowned Alan Warner Band played a special concert for one of its long-time residents. The event, held in the care home's reception area, fulfilled a dream for the dedicated fan who had missed their recent local performance.
A devoted follower of the Alan Warner Band for years, the resident expressed his disappointment to his daughter upon learning that he wouldn't be able to attend their nearby venue. Moved by her father's enthusiasm for the band, she reached out to the staff at Penrose Court, who came up with an inspired idea; bring the band to the care home.
Without hesitation, the resident's daughter contacted the band, who graciously agreed to perform at Penrose Court. Excitement built as preparations were made for the unique concert. The special event took place at 3pm, transforming the reception area into a lively music venue, complete with full equipment, including drums.
