Residents from HC-One’s Fir Trees care home in Dukinfield visited the Portland Basin Museum in Ashton-under-Lyne.
The museum celebrates the people, events and industries which have shaped the history of Tameside over the last two hundred years. Residents and staff explored the museum and learnt about the town’s heritage.
With the help of a member of the team from Fir Trees, Christina, a Resident played hopscotch like she used to be when she was younger.
Once they had finished in the museum, Residents and staff enjoyed a lovely meal before returning to the home. A great day was had by all, with Residents commenting that they had a “smashing day” and thought the meal was delicious.
Christina Carling, Resident at Fir Trees said:
“I have really enjoyed myself today, I learned a lot and had a great time with everyone.”
