Jeanie thrilled at Mother’s Day surprise at Castleford Lodge Care Home
On Sunday mums across the country were celebrated for Mother’s Day, and Jeanie Golden received a delightful surprise of a grand afternoon tea at Castleford Lodge Care Home, where she currently resides.
Jeanie has lived at Castleford Lodge for a year and a half. She is the proud mother of Sarah Golden-Hill, who works as the Home Manager at the same care home.
Jeanie was overjoyed when Ellie Scott, Clinical Lead and the catering team wheeled in a selection of delicious treats to celebrate the occasion.
Ellie said: “The hardest part was keeping the secret - our entire home was buzzing!”
Sarah said: “I can’t believe everyone went to the effort of putting together this grand spread for my mum and I for Mother’s Day. I'm in disbelief that the team at Castleford Lodge went to all of this trouble and managed to keep it a secret!”
Jeanie said: “This is wonderful; the team even went to the effort of remembering that fish and chips is my favourite dinner and they served it up for us alongside this amazing afternoon tea.”
