A SILSDEN care home has staged its first summer fete since before the pandemic.

The event, at Springbank, was on a country and western theme.

Highlights included a line dancing performance, and residents, guests and staff were invited to join in a finale.

Lisa Noble, the registered manager, said: "The fete was a real showstopper for all the residents, families, friends, local community and staff.

"The sun was shining, making our picturesque grounds the perfect backdrop for the non-stop entertainment from local volunteer line dancers. Also, our chefs created mouthwatering masterpieces on the theme."

Over £180 was raised for a volunteer-run Thursday Club at Silsden Methodist Church, which some residents attend.

Springbank is run by Spellman Care, whose other homes include Steeton Court Nursing Home.
