125th anniversary: Middleton Hall’s teams celebrate with live music, dancing and cake!

The week of celebrations to mark the start of Middleton Hall’s 125th anniversary included a special party for Middleton Hall’s co-owners.

The teams who work in care and support roles across the retirement village enjoyed a lively evening get together in the giant tipi erected for the week’s celebrations.

A delicious hog roast from nearby family-run farm shop Hutchinson Hobbs was followed by a fireworks display and live music from Alastair Griffin and Ignite Concerts with a set that filled the dancefloor!

Everyone enjoyed the celebratory cakes by local business Kim’s Cakes and a special 125th anniversary chocolate bar gift to take home at the end of the evening.

There are lots of happy smiling faces in the gallery of photos below from the event!
