STAFF and residents at a York care home have been rocking out to the greatest hits of Rod Stewart, in a specially planned concert that was particularly close to one resident’s heart.
Staff at Ebor Court discovered that 88-year-old resident, Dot Hudson, is a self-proclaimed super fan of the British rocker, but despite having all his records and being an avid collector of his memorabilia, she had never attended a concert.
Staff organised a concert for Mrs Hudson using a large cinema TV to screen one of Rod's performances at the Royal Albert Hall. Staff brought snacks and drinks including some of her favourite fizz to mark the special occasion.
Mrs Hudson said: "The staff here are absolutely fantastic and always go above and beyond to make residents dreams come true! I used to regret never going to a concert but now I can tick that off my list thanks to the team here at Ebor Court. I had a wonderful evening."
