Musical Activities
Music truly is magical. It would appear that despite mood or illnesses music is ALWAYS enjoyed by each and every person; both Residents and Staff members.
At The Limes we embrace music and encourage not only the Residents but also the staff members to get involved. Weekly sing-a-longs, organised by staff members, are scheduled due to high popularity and demand. Residents sing, smile and dance with one another and the staff. Everyone truly has a great time.
At The Limes we also have outside entertainers come to provide us with music. This includes; singers, piano players and guitar players. A regular outside entertainer is called Helen Hagan, she is very popular with the residents and extremely good at what she does.
During July 2021, The Limes organised a specific sing along in order to celebrate National Cowboy Day 2021. Country songs by Dolly Parton and Johnny Cash were played and cowboy hats were supplied for the residents to wear. The residents sung and danced. A member of staff surprised the residents and came in dressed as a cowgirl. The residents were surprised and laughed a LOT at the member of staff.
