🌿🎶 A beautiful afternoon of music at Marjorie House! 💙
We were delighted to welcome Jewel Harmonies to Marjorie House recently for a wonderful afternoon of live singing in the garden. ☀️🌷
Residents enjoyed a fantastic selection of songs from the 1950s onwards, bringing back plenty of happy memories. There was lots of singing along, toe-tapping and, most importantly, smiles all around! 💃🕺
A huge thank you to Jewel Harmonies for filling our garden with music, laughter and nostalgia. It was a very special afternoon enjoyed by everyone. 🎤💙
