Harp and Happiness

Staff and residents at the Braeburn Lodge care home in Market Deeping were treated to an hour in the company of talented harpist, Marian O’Toole.

Marian delighted the residents at the home by performing all kinds of different pieces, there were classical harp solos, along with a mix of popular songs - everything from the Beatles to Rodgers and Hammerstein. There was something for everyone, and the residents had a wonderful time singing and clapping along.
