SCHOOL CHOIR BRINGS FESTIVE SPIRIT TO LOCAL RETIREMENT COMMUNITY

A local school choir has helped bring the Christmas spirit to a retirement community in Leyland.

The choir from the Leyland Methodist School sang a selection of carols and festive favourites for homeowners at Balshaw Court Retirement Living Plus development by McCarthy Stone, the UK’s leading developer and manager of retirement communities.

Homeowners and their guests also tucked into mouth-watering mince pies and coffee during the event.

Louise Flynn, Divisional Marketing Manager for McCarthy Stone North, commented: “At McCarthy Stone, we are always seeking to foster links with the local community, especially at Christmas, and it was fantastic to see the children from Leyland Methodist School giving their renditions of Yuletide tunes. Their performance was greatly enjoyed by everyone at Balshaw Court, and their guests, bringing an early sprinkling of Yuletide spirit to the community.”

Miss J Hollings, deputy head teacher at Leyland Methodist School added: “The children worked incredibly hard to be ready for their big performance and really enjoyed singing for the audience at Balshaw Court, who gave them a great reception and clearly loved every minute. Hopefully it is something we can repeat next year!”

Balshaw Court is situated in a quiet residential area close to the town centre and home to a range of independent shops, cafes, and a variety of other businesses. 

What’s more, it is surrounded by delightful greenery with Worden Park and its mature woodlands and open meadows just a stone’s throw from the development, perfect for those quiet strolls.
