Landemer Day spirit and music comes to care home

The Landemer celebrations started early at David Walker Care Home with a live performance from Music in Hospitals’ musicians,‘Muckle Ado’on Thursday afternoon.

Residents were treated to an hour of well known Scottish favourites, some country and western songs and many enjoyed the opportunity to sing along and take part in the music making.

The highly inclusive performance was made possible thanks to support from the Landemer Committee who have funded live concerts from Music in Hospitals for residents of local care settings over the past four years.

Florence Burke, of Music in Hospitals Scotland, was delighted with the event and said:“We are hugely proud to be involved in this year’s Landemer celebrations to provide live music for the residents and staff at David Walker House.

“Our many thanks go to the Landemer Committee for their ongoing support of our musicians’performances, enabling us to help bring the Landemer party to people in care across Rutherglen.”

The Landemer Committee continues to bring the festivities to care homes and older people who may be unable to attend the June 3 gala.

The Landemer Queen elect and two of the ladies in waiting also went along to the event to have their pictures taken with some of the people at the care home, whilst staff laid on afternoon tea with an excellent choice of cakes and pancakes.

We’re proud to be involved in Landemer
