Tea room is a blast from the past
Queen Meadow Care Home, in Stockton Road, has opened a tea room called Reminisce Tea Room on its premises, to give elderly residents the chances to think about their past.
The project was organised by Debbie Wilkes from the home, in the hopes it will give residents the chance to be nostalgic.
Debbie said the tea room has been a success with residents.

“The tea room was officially opened on World Scone and Tea Day last month.
“The idea behind the tea room is to give residents the chance to reminisce and we have filled it with nostalgic artefacts that I had been collecting.”
