Caer Gwent care home put on a 'perfect' pantomime

The care home staff had dedicated themselves to weeks of rehearsals, and created a perfect performance that whisked the audience away to a magical world. Amiee Ross, Receptionist at Caer Gwent, stole the show with her skilfully handcrafted costumes. The production also featured an original script written by the Caer Gwent team and many popular musical numbers providing opportunities for a good singalong.

Brenda, a resident at Caer Gwent, thoroughly enjoyed the show and said, ‘It was marvellous, you would have thought it was professional.’ Cyril, also a resident at Caer Gwent, went on to add that ‘The costumes were fantastic, and to learn the lines is not easy. It was wonderful.’

Caer Gwent combines high quality residential living with 24-hour expert nursing care. The home features individually designed rooms with en-suite bathrooms, spacious communal areas, and delicious nutritious food.

Terri Needham, Deputy Manager at Caer Gwent, said, ‘Our pantomime was a highlight of the year to residents and staff. The atmosphere was amazing, and everybody thoroughly enjoyed it, our staff went above and beyond stepping out of their comfort zones to give our residents a memorable Christmas.’

Sammy Paynter, Health and Wellbeing Coordinator at Caer Gwent said, ‘To see the residents faces was truly magical and it’s the reason why we do what we do.’
