Orchard Court Care Home in Brigg has unveiled their new on-site hair and beauty salon, created in loving memory of a much-adored resident, Margaret Bennett. 💚
The salon, named Bennett’s Beauty, was officially opened last week by the Mayor of Brigg, Penny Smith, in a special ceremony attended by Margaret’s family, team members, residents and residents' families.
The salon offers residents a relaxing space to enjoy any hairdressing services, alongside a fabulous nail bar. 💅 The project was inspired by Margaret’s vibrant personality and her love of looking and feeling her best. 💕
The mayor praised Orchard Court for their thoughtful tribute, highlighting the importance of creating spaces that support wellbeing and community in residential care homes.
Margaret’s family thanked the team for the touching tribute. “It means so much to see her remembered in this way,” a relative shared. “She would have absolutely loved this.”.
Orchard Court's Manager, Tracy, reflected on Margaret's impact: “She believed that a simple trip to the salon could brighten your whole day. We wanted to create something lasting in her memory that would continue to bring that same joy to others.”
As the first residents tried out the new salon, it was a joy to see Margarat's legacy reflected by not just the salon itself, but the joy experienced by our residents 🥰
