Springwater Lodge care home in Calverton enjoyed some early Burns Night celebrations on Friday 24th January.
Burns Night is a celebration of the life of the bard Robert Burns which is traditionally hosted on the anniversary of his birthday, 25th January 1759. The day also commemorates Burns' contribution to Scottish culture, including his best known work, Auld Lang Syne.
Residents were treated to a delicious home cooked lunch of Scottish delicacies, including, haggis, neeps and tatties, served with wine and scotch. Everyone was then treated to a bagpipe performance from John wearing a traditional Scottish kilt.
One Resident commented: “What a lovely day, I really enjoyed eating the haggis and listening to the wonderful sounds of the bagpipes.”
