Singing for a Cause: Mayflower Brighton’s Biggest Morning Tea

Published

Cupcakes, a morning brew, and the vibrant colours of blue and yellow brought our Mayflower Brighton Community of residents, team members, and family members together for a heartfelt cause—raising vital funds for those affected by cancer.

In the sea of blue and yellow, our community gathered to witness a truly heart-warming and impactful performance by our talented 'The Mayflower Singers' choir group. With Denise, Frank, Wilma, Betty, Charles, Janet, and Elizabeth taking turns leading the choir, their voices resonated with joy and unity, singing beloved tunes like 'Wouldn't it be Loverly' and 'Fly Me to The Moon.' Our Mayflower choir is supported by Music Therapist Zita, and our lifestyle team.

Beyond the melodies, these performances created moments of pure delight, allowing our choir members to flourish in confidence, independence, and the joy of connecting with like-minded friends. It's incredible to witness the bonds that form within our community through the power of music.

Late in May, our Mayflower Brighton Community came together with open hearts and unwavering support. Taste buds were tempted by yellow-themed treats, including the tantalizing aroma of house-made lemon slices, and endless cups of comforting tea and coffee, we indulged in the sweetness of togetherness, all for a worthy cause.

While the funds raised may not be enormous in value compared to others, the impact of the gathering carries weight beyond the tangible. It serves as a powerful reminder to residents and our team members affected by cancer that they are cherished, cared for, and never alone on their journey.

In the spirit of unity and compassion, we continue to stand together, bringing hope, warmth, and unwavering support to our Mayflower Community and beyond.
