Resident Margaret, a talented pianist whose performances are always popular at Ashton Manor, was among the stars of the afternoon, treating fellow residents and colleagues to live piano music.

The music continued in the tearooms, where Cornerstone led a lively singalong, with residents joining in to familiar favourites.

Residents and colleagues also helped raise funds for the charity through the sale of pink cupcakes.
