Middlesbrough Grange celebrates St Patrick’s Day

Colleagues at Middlesbrough Grange Care home in Middlesbrough donned green hats and glasses to get into the spirit of the day. The care home was decked out in shamrocks and green decorations made by the residents during arts and crafts activities to mark the feast day of Ireland’s patron saint, St Patrick.

The residents also took part in several activities to celebrate the occasion with live music from local singer Mark Carter and afternoon tea with Guinness served at the home’s inhouse pub!

Ann McDonald aged 89, has lived at Middlesbrough Grange for three years, said she enjoyed the party. Ann said she had:

I had high hopes for the singer and Mr Mark Carter definitely did not disappoint!
