Local retiree Peter Brown received a Christmas gift to remember when he was selected as guest of honour at Churchill Living’s recent Festive Cheer event at Bower Lodge in Shirley.
Peter was nominated as a ‘Festive VIP’ by Colleagues at the development who felt that he deserved a treat this Christmas. The event on Thursday 14th December was attended by apartment Owners and guests, who enjoyed festive food and drink, and saw Peter presented with a festive hamper and £100 M&S voucher to mark the occasion.
Churchill’s ‘Festive Cheer’ initiative had asked people up and down the country to nominate someone who deserved to be rewarded for their commitment to volunteering or charity work this year, or someone who is lonely or has faced some hard times, or simply a loved one who deserves to be spoiled this Christmas.
Bernadette Hennelly, Marketing Manager at Churchill, said: “Our Festive Cheer events were designed to spread some seasonal magic, and we’re delighted to have done that for Peter here in Shirley.”
Churchill provides purpose-built one and two bedroom privately-owned apartments for the over 60s, set amongst attractive landscaped gardens. All developments come with an Owners’ Lounge for events and socialising, a Guest Suite where family and friends can stay, a Lodge Manager, free parking, secure camera entry and a 24-hour call centre support system.
