Thanks to a generous donation by Leweston School, residents of Trinity Manor care home can tickle the ivories whenever they like…
When Trinity Manor care home reached out to Dr Rachel Milestone, music director at Leweston School, they were thinking they might be able to collaborate with her students. What they didn’t anticipate was an incredibly generous musical gift from the school.
Rachel immediately invited the residents to attend the school’s summer concert, which was enjoyed by many from the home, staff and residents alike.
A week or so after the concert, Trinity Manor home services advisor Rebekah Goddard was delighted when Rachel offered the home a piano as a gift from the school.
“We were thrilled when Rachel asked us if we wanted to give a piano a home – what an offer!” said Rebekah “We were so happy when a few weeks later, Rachel arrived with her daughter to deliver it. The piano has already been played by residents and staff alike, as well as visiting musicians. We cannot thank the school enough for such a lovely present.”
Deputy manager Paul Pippard added: “Some of the students are hoping to come and visit us in the autumn term for a variety of activities involving our residents, many of which we hope will involve our new piano. We are excited to see how these visits pan out and we are certain that they will mutually benefit both students and residents, offering an opportunity to create some new friendships too.
“Huge gratitude to Leweston for such a wonderful gift and here’s to some great future opportunities for us all.”
