Country and Western fete hosted by Scarborough Hall

Staff, residents, relatives and the local community came together at Scarborough Hall to enjoy a Country and Westernthemed summer fete held in the home’s grounds.

The venue hosted a variety of activities, including farm animals from Purple Pig Company, musical entertainment from Matt at Rewind, a tombola, a raffle, games and crafts stalls as well as a plant stall which were enjoyed by everyone who attended.

Also, Scarborough Hall invited members of the community to attend its free Alzheimer's Awareness Talk.

Staff who are specially trained in dementia care from Dementia Action Alliance delivered the talk which covered topics such as how to spot the first signs of dementia, how to get a diagnosis, how to look after your loved one living with dementia and how to fund care, as well as details of local support groups in the area.

There was plenty of time for questions and answers during the session.
