Christmas Party Time!

At Craig Healthcare, one thing is for sure, we all enjoy a Christmas party! Each of our homes has enjoyed a festive-themed party this year with local performers visiting to make them extra special. At Cramlington House this year, local singer John Doonan came to entertain residents for the afternoon singing some of the best Christmas classics there ever was. He put on a magnificent show for residents who really enjoyed the entertainment. At Holywell House Care Centre, Alfie Dobson visited and put on a raucous performance that was extremely well received by residents. Alfie and John sang so many  Christmas song classics from Cliff Richard, Slade, Wham, Bing Crosby & many more. There wasn’t an empty seat in the place – so many residents joined in the festivities and it was so lovely to see!

Live entertainment plays an important part in the care we provide at Craig Healthcare as our residents get so much out of it. They physically, mentally and socially engage in such performances and it’s a total joy to watch. There are huge benefits of live performances and residents are more relaxed and content following such occasions. Thank you to the performers who ensured our residents had a Christmas party to remember – we massively appreciate your talents and support!
