On Friday 27th September the owners at the Bowling Green held a coffee morning to raise funds for MacMillan Cancer Support. The event was organised and hosted by the Residents’ Committee Chairperson, Janet Ridgway, and family and friends were invited. As well as cakes and fancy goods for sale there were raffles, a tombola and a guess the number of berries on a cake competition. Over £500 was raised for the charity and everyone had a lovely time.
 Eastbank Court had a very successful MacMillan coffee morning on the 27th September, raising an amazing £722.

Montrose Court were delighted to host a special birthday celebration for owner Mrs Diana Bevan. Family and friends travelled from afar to spend the afternoon drinking bubbly and enjoy a delicious buffet lunch. A wonderful afternoon filled with laughter, quizzes and music. Mrs Beavan generously declined all offers of birthday gifts and instead suggested donations be made to a local group – Hoylake and Meols in Bloom who tend to the flowers and plants in the local area all year round. 
We held a Mediterranean Tapas Night here at Gressland Court. We started the evening off with Tomato Essence (Raymond Blanc recipe) followed by an array of delicious food prepared by Jane our Chef.

Brompton hosted its traditional jazz night with the fabulous Mill Street Jazz Band who faithfully travel over every year from Swanage to deliver an ever popular night of easy listening jazz. Over 50 owners, families & guests booked in and the weather was very kind… Our chef John grilled off chicken, salmon and lamb koftas alongside a good selection of salads and topped off with plenty of wine & beer. We all had a jolly time, staff included, enjoying the summer evening and we even managed to get Carl, Court Manager, doing the Conga! ‘The best yet ‘ they all proclaim… bravo to all the team in delivering another fantastic evening! Join us for an Open Day at Gresham Court on Saturday 17th August between 10am - 2pm.
