ELDERLY residents gave themselves a new look after a team of stylists joined forces with a Riding Mill care facility.
Wentworth Grange Residential and Nursing Hotel has teamed up with Reflections Hair salon.
Now every Tuesday, stylists visit the Riding Mill home to offer residents a luxurious experience from hair styling, colouring and cutting to manicures, pedicures and beauty treatments.
Keen to make residents feel special, the idea came from Wentworth Grange audit manager, Lynn Mead who has worked at the home for over 30 years.
Manager, Jeff Lee said: “We like to go above and beyond to offer something different. Everything that we do here we do to try to make people happy. We have more women than men here and having your hair done can be a really nice, luxurious experience. Reflections do a really good job and we felt our two businesses would complement each other.”
