“We’ve got lots of ideas for decorating the whole space in art deco style and the staff and I will be getting our fancy dress frocks on. We’d love our guests to dress up too if they’re happy to. It should be a lot of fun for carers and cared for people to enjoy time out together, so just get in touch to book your place on the guest list.”

Professional mixologist, Aaron Wilson, will give a demonstration of how to expertly combine flavours to create delicious non-alcoholic versions of well-known cocktails such as the Sidecar and Pina Colada. Guests will have a chance to get hands on to create their own concoctions to compete with the classics.
