A spokesperson for the nursing home said: “Who needs muddy fields when you can have just as much fun in your own town!
“One fabulous highlight of the event was the mime performance by Cassie, Frome’s Home Administrator.
“Her performance, paired with the classic mime attire of a white face and red scarf, only added to the fun and high-spirits of the day.
“Music obviously was a big part of the day, with resident John Whittle jamming on the guitar and the care home’s team showing off their musical talents.
“Everyone got into the festival spirit with fun outfits, and the place was decked out with colourful bunting, balloons, and cool art installations.”
“It really looked and felt like the real Glastonbury!,” said Press Home Manager Becky.
“The community spirit was so uplifting, bringing us all together that felt amazing.”
Residents spent time with their loved ones, relaxing, and enjoying the festivities, including a BBQ lunch.
A spokesperson said: “One especially touching moment was when a family member gave a thumbs-up while surrounded by friends and family, perfectly capturing the happiness and togetherness the event was all about.
“The Glastonbury event was a huge hit, bringing laughter and a real sense of community to everyone involved.
“It showed how social events can help build stronger connections among the family members, proving that you’re never too old to enjoy a good festival!”
