Maycroft Care Home in Royston was transformed into a 'festive wonderland' at a Christmas party for residents, staff and families.

Singer Pauline Brown visited the home to perform upbeat Christmas songs, after which the festivities continued with mulled wine, a buffet and conversation.

Residents showcased their dancing prowess, with John teaching a waltz and Peter sharing a dance with his wife, Barney.

A raffle helped to raise £71 for the Maycroft Residents Fund, thanks to donations from local businesses including Meldreth One Stop, Gena's Nail Bar in Melbourn and Fieldgate Nurseries in Meldreth.

Caroline, daughter of resident Pamela, said: "The home has such a buzz to it. It’s been a great party, and so lovely to see all the residents together enjoying themselves."
