The Opera is kindly hosted by the Lytton Cobbold family and this year's performance by the Connaught Opera was Chariots of Fire, a Spectacular in Song. Residents came from a number of our care homes to enjoy the show.

They wandered through the audience during many of their numbers, interacting with residents and encouraging them to join in.
