In case you need some joy brought to your morning…
Meet Joan, an 89-year-old resident who asked for a visit from an attractive man with ‘a large chest and big biceps’ – and had that wish granted.
Joan and her friend Pauline were absolutely delighted when a stripper dressed as a fireman arrived at Glastonbury Court care home in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, and treated the ladies to a dance.
Thankfully the wonderful occasion was captured on video, so we can all watch Joan and her pals having a giggle as the stripper waves his belt in the air.
Speaking after the dance, Joan said: ‘I thought that he was amazing – I wish he could visit us every day!
‘He made me feel like I was young again, I loved every second.’
This isn’t the first brilliant request from residents at the care home.
Previous granted desires to the home’s wishing tree initiative have included a trip to the beach at Felixstowe, shopping trips, and afternoon tea.
Sharlene Van Tonder, home manager for Care UK, said: ‘Most people expect life in a care home to be a certain way, with residents watching television and doing a bit of knitting.
‘Here at Glastonbury Court, our ethos is about helping people to enjoy more independent and fulfilling lives in the way they want to, and we’re keen to ensure that there are no limitations so that every day can be different and fun.
‘It’s fair to say this isn’t the typical kind of visitor we have at the home – but based on the response, he was one of the most popular.’
