Worthing dancers delight care home residents with an afternoon of folk dancing

Worthing Dance International demonstrated a range of folk dances as a treat for care home residents, bringing back memories of their own dancing days.

The visit to The Victoria Grand Care Home, in Mill Road, Worthing, on January 29 was organised by Jim Bent, as his wife Theresa has been receiving respite care there after a stroke.

He presented Theresa with a beautiful bouquet of yellow roses and she said she thoroughly enjoyed watching the dancing.

Jim also chatted with some of the residents about their own dancing days.

The group meets at Goring United Reformed Church hall on Friday evenings from 7.30pm to 9.15pm. Members practise a varierty of dance styles.

Dances performed at The Victoria Grand included Scottish, Romanian and Yugoslavian dances, as well as Jim's favourite, a Bulgarian dance.
