Castleford Care Home Takes to the Stage for Children in Need Fundraiser

Residents and staff members at Newfield Lodge care home in Castleford are warming up their vocal cords in preparation for ‘Newfield Lodge’s Got Talent’ on Friday 17th November, in aid of Children in Need.

Open to the local community, Newfield Lodge will be busting out the karaoke machine from 10:30 until 12:30 for people to show off their talent and fundraise for BBC Children in Need.

Last year, Newfield Lodge managed to raise over £400 for the charity with a sponsored walk around the care home’s gardens and they hope to raise even more this year.

86-year-old resident, Joyce Paver, was one resident who took part in last year’s sponsored walk. Joyce said, ‘Raising money for Children in Need is very important as they give children a chance to get the help they need.’

General Manager and karaoke lover, Lynn Robinson, added, ‘Children in Need is a charity that has always been very close to our hearts, and our residents always get stuck into fundraising each year.

‘We have lots of talent at Newfield Lodge, so we hope lots of people come along and join us for a fun sing-along to support this extremely worthy cause.’

All are welcome to join Newfield Lodge for ‘Newfield Lodge’s Got Talent’, which will take place in the home on Brookfield Avenue, Castleford, West Yorkshire, WF10 4BJ.

You can donate to the ‘Newfield Lodge’s Got Talent’ fundraiser on their JustGiving page.
