Mandela Day Post Event Press Release

Mandela Day Post Event Press Release

Date: 2014-07-25
This Mandela Day, The Misty Blue Group honoured Madiba's memory and took part in the worldwide '67 minutes' campaign by dedicating an afternoon to brightening the lives of the residents of the Bill Buchanan Old Age Home.

On Friday 18 July, the seniors were treated to a decadent high tea by representatives from The Misty Blue Group's 4 hotel properties. Residents enjoyed tea, coffee, juice, and a variety of sweet and savoury snacks, all laid out in lavish style fit for royalty.

The event was a tremendous success, and the elderly residents of the home loved every moment - from the mouth-watering snacks on offer and warm winter scarves that were given to each resident to keep to the indulgent neck, shoulder and foot massages from Aqua Spa. Above all though, for many residents, just knowing that they had not been forgotten and that there are people out there who care for them made all the difference in making them feel loved and wanted.

Resident Yvonne Verwey absolutely loved the day. "It is wonderful, we are all so spoilt," she said.

Representatives from The Misty Blue Group were grateful for the opportunity to spend the afternoon with the lovely ladies and gents from Bill Buchanan, and enjoyed the event almost as much as the seniors.
