Team members at the care home served summer drinks and refreshments to residents and their family members and guests during the early evening event. They were joined by friends and volunteers of the care home, as they enjoyed the views of Abingdon’s skyline.

Louise Allen, Head of Care at Old Station House, who hosted the event whilst Home Manager Sharon Tatum was away, said: “We were thrilled to have so many people join us at this rooftop cocktail party to celebrate the renovation of this wonderful space. It has always been a favourite spot for our residents, especially in warm weather. As a team we are incredibly proud of the vibrant, joyful community we've built here, and we want to quite literally shout it from the rooftops!”

Jeff Denton, Activities Co-ordinator said: “The roof terrace and conservatory give us more options for residents to enjoy the fresh air. I’m already planning new events to make the most of the space including a Spanish evening and a Medieval banquet.”
