Residents at HC-One’s Murrayfield House care home in Edinburgh Scottish flag with pride as they celebrated St Andrew’s Day on Saturday 30th November with family, friends and team members.
St Andrew’s Day celebrates Scotland’s patron saint, a fisherman well known for being strong, sociable and fair. He encouraged people to share what they had with those in need and wished for people to be kind and charitable.
To celebrate, the team arranged for traditional Scottish music to be performed for Residents and guests in the ballroom, with Residents singing along to their favourite songs and some even getting up for a dance.
Murrayfield House Home Manager, Mandy Cooper said: “It is very important for us to respect and encourage traditions and we knew a day of importance such as this for our Residents, was worthy of a celebration.
“The celebration was enjoyable for everyone that attended and the Residents particularly enjoyed welcoming guests into their home.”
