Stonedale Lodge Residents Enjoy Pie Week Treat Gifted By Local Shop
8 March 2020
National Pie Week was one to remember for the Residents of Stonedale Lodge this year, thanks to a kind donation from supermarket Jack’s.
The big-hearted store donated 32 delicious steak pies, chips, peas and gravy so Residents could enjoy an in-house celebration.
As the kitchen team got to work to prepare a feast for everyone to enjoy, Senior Activities Co-ordinator Karen Dransfield hit upon another idea to make the event memorable.
She decided to combine a special pie and pint afternoon with World Book Day celebrations too, so she staged a one-woman performance of scenes from Pinocchio.
With great food and fun entertainment, Karen said the Residents thoroughly enjoyed the festivities.
Karen said: “It was so kind of Jack’s to donate a pie week feast, we wanted to make it a memorable afternoon.
“Each Resident got to enjoy pie tasters and a pint, which went down a storm.
“The Pinocchio sketches were a hoot to play, the Residents love it when they can get involved with a bit of fun. All in all, it was a happy, fun-filled afternoon, and everyone enjoyed themselves.”
