A BRIDGEND care home has celebrated its 15-year anniversar­y.

Bryn Celyn Care Home in Maesteg marked the milestone with a party last week that included a buffet as well as a performanc­e from a Britain’s Got Talent star.

The residentia­l and nursing home, which was bought by Hallmark Care Homes in 2003, recognised residents, relatives and individual­s who have contribute­d to its success at the event, and the musical entertainm­ent for the party came from the ITV show’s 2016 finalist, Melanie Bell.

Throughout the event there was also an oppor- tunity for people to take a tour of the home’s newly refurbishe­d café and hair salon.
