We’ve had a very exciting week this week at Holywell House! We organised a very special treat for residents who enjoyed a pantomime provided by North East Producers.
Every year we enlist the help of the hugely talented performers at North East Producers to put on a show-stopping Christmas panto for our residents and they never disappoint! This year the pantomime was Alice in Wonderful which was wonderfully received by residents.
Natalie Dawson, our administrative assistant at Holywell House, said: “Wow, what a performance! The panto was amazing and it was great to see how engaged residents were. They were singing and clapping along, following the storyline and they really enjoyed themselves. It was lovely to see them all happy and relaxed in each other’s company and entertained by the performance. Live performances provide great mental and social health benefits to our residents. They get a lot from them and afterwards often engage in conversation about the show and are feeling content after an enjoyable time.”
