Retirement residents enjoy Mad Hatter’s Tea Party

A Cambridgeshire retirement living community was transformed into a wonderland as residents enjoyed a Mad Hatter’s Tea Party.

The catering team at Sanctuary Retirement Living’s Doddington Court, in Doddington, dressed as popular characters from Alice in Wonderland and served up a delicious afternoon tea.

A doorstep delivery service was provided for residents who chose to remain in their flats, so everyone was able to enjoy the occasion.

Emma Hunt, Chef Manager, said: “We had great fun dressing up and residents enjoyed seeing all the colourful costumes. It was a wonderful afternoon and certainly raised everyone’s spirits in these testing times.”

Doddington Court provides retirement apartments with on-site care and support.

Residents have access to a range of communal facilities and care and support is adapted to suit individual needs, helping residents to remain as independent as possible.
