Staff, residents, relatives and the local community came together at Thistle Hill Care Centre in Knaresborough to enjoy a wonderful Christmas Fete.

There were all kinds of stalls on offer manned by volunteers, friends and family and local stall holders came along to sell their wares too. There were delicious cakes, jewellery, aroma lamps, toiletries, clothing, handbags, purses the list goes on! We had a live show from David Gloan and Stuart on the Keyboard and Santa in his grotto!

The team at Thistle Hill Care Centre would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who either manned a stall, donated a raffle prize or who came along to support the home. There was a fantastic atmosphere and in total the home raised £337 towards sensory equipment which is brilliant.

It was a resounding success! I am so proud of everyone involved; it was a fantastic team effort.”
