BRIO’S CHARITY TENNIS CHALLENGE SUCCESS
AS AWARD WINNING LANDALE COURT HOMEOWNERS RAISE FUNDS FOR DEMENTIA SCOTLAND
Following a tennis themed charity challenge, homeowners, their grandchildren and team members at Brio Retirement Living’s award winning Landale Court development in Aberdeenshire are celebrating their success in raising much-needed funds for Dementia Scotland.
Working alongside their colleagues and residents at Brio’s two further developments in The Cotswolds and London, who were also raising funds for the charity, a total of almost £200 has been raised so far. Inspired by the famous Wimbledon tournament, the young-at-heart retirees took part in competitive games of swing ball and tennis ball keep-ups each day throughout the tournament and beyond, concluding at the end of July. Pimms, strawberry tarts and jam and cream scones were also on the menu at Brio’s onsite Slate & Grain brasseries for all to enjoy.
Everyone who took part purchased a tennis ball for £5 – and all donations will go to charities Dementia Scotland and Dementia UK. The team has also set up a JustGiving page where people can continue to make their donations here: https://www.justgiving.com/page/briolc
Jess Nicoll, Brio’s National Sales & Marketing Manager, shared: “We’ve all really enjoyed the tennis challenge. Our homeowners love to come up with creative ideas to raise money for charity and it’s been a delight to welcome lots of grandchildren to join in too. Donations from our three developments at Landale Court in Chapelton, Beechwood Park in Stow-on-the-Wold and Button House in Hackbridge are being collected and we’re thrilled to be able to help so many worthy causes throughout the year.”
