We’re so proud to share this brilliant and cheerful poem written by one of our wonderful residents, Betty 💛

Bowland Trough Bistro has clearly inspired some creativity, and Betty has captured the excitement perfectly—from golden fish and chips to sweet treats and friendly company. It’s full of warmth, humour, and community spirit, just like our home.

Thank you, Betty, for putting smiles on all our faces and celebrating everything that makes our bistro so special 🍰🐟

Please join us in giving Betty a big round of applause 👏
