Claire House, posted by Kebi

We were delighted to be invited to dance for the children and staff at Claire House Children’s Hospice last month. We were made to feel very welcome.

When we arrived we discovered it was also the birthday of one of the young men, I think he enjoyed our rendition of Happy Birthday.

We thought a bit of glamour was called for, so out came our “evening” dresses, and of course the audience had to be glammed up as well.

I can honestly say they were the most enthusiastic audience we have danced for in a long time. It took very little encouragement for the room to be full of clapping and shaking of bells and tambourines. A couple of the carers also had a go at dancing and there is some definite talent there!

It was a wonderful evening, and the children really enjoyed themselves. It was a pleasure and honour for us to perform for them.

When we had finished, we were presented with a beautiful thank-you card the children had made for us.

Claire House is a wonderful happy, joyful, caring place, which holds a special place in my heart. Please check out their website and support them any way you can.
