RESIDENTS at Green Lodge in Billingham, Stockton-on-Tees got out their sequins and feather boas to celebrate Pride Month.
The rainbow party at the care home even had two drag queens – Anarchy Queen and Veronica Venom – who came to visit the home for an afternoon of songs and laughter.
Activities co-ordinator Nicola Bowes said: “Lots of our people are young at heart and love nothing more than having fun and dressing up when singers come in.
“I thought it would be really good to try and find some drag queens to visit us for something a bit different while incorporating Pride Month.”
The event started with a sing-along and dancing to popular disco and dance classics. Then there was a chance to have pictures taken, with the duo then making visits to those unable to join the party in the main room.
Nicola added: “I’m really happy with how well it went and seeing the smiles on everyone’s faces made all the hard work worth it.”
