Dancing Through Generations at Lear House

When we throw a party at Abbeyfield Hoylake and West Kirby, we really know how to make it memorable! Last month, our residents enjoyed a fantastically festive afternoon celebrating St Patrick’s Day, filled with laughter, music and plenty of dancing. Special thanks go out to the wonderful Jenna from Boogie Woogie Music, Movement & Memories, whose infectious energy and toe-tapping tunes kept everyone smiling and moving.
