Residents in Corton House and tenants in Brakendon Close celebrated with a special worship service led by our chaplain Rev. Rhonwen Washford. The home was also decorated with bunting and coronation themed crafts, while those who wanted to were able to dress up and watched the televised ceremony on 6th May. In Brakendon Close, the community came together on 8th May with a coronation themed bring and share buffet - lots of food, Pimms, laughter and even a special poetry reading by one of our talented tenants!
