Ladies Day at Balcarres care homeResidents at Balcarres, residential and residential dementia care home, in Dundee, have loved watching the horse racing. 

To celebrate the races at Aintree, Balcarres put on a Ladies Day for all the Residents.

The Residents decorated hats with flowers, they had some champagne with strawberries and lots of special nibbles. June, a Resident, commented, “Oh I love the hat I have made!”

It was such a fun day! The Residents picked a horse in the race and in the following days for the Grand National and they were over the moon when their horse won. 

Alma Cargill, a Resident, remarked, “My horse was a donkey!”

It was very exciting, the Residents watching were on the edge of their seats the whole time. 

Lynn McLean, Care Home Manager, added, “It was such a lovely day! And a great Grand National weekend.”
