It was a day of dementia-themed celebrations at Fernbank Residential Care Home, in Gratwicke Road, Worthing, on Sunday, July 2. Elaine Yelland, welfare liaison, said: "We had a sing along for all in the morning, with many of our residents joining in with Tony Christie's charity single Thank You For Being A Friend.
"In the afternoon, Worthing Silver Band came to perform for us on our front lawn. Although a rather blustery day, our residents ranging from their young 80s right up to 100 had a wonderful day full of singing, smiles, toe tapping and tea."
