McCarthy Stone, the UK’s leading developer and manager of retirement communities, is helping to bring the community together and get into the Yuletide spirit this festive season, as part of a special Christmas Open Week at its Gilbert Place Retirement Living Plus development in Swindon.
The free event will take place between 10th and 17th December, from 11am until 4pm, and will see visitors treated to mouth-watering mince pies and a warming glass or two of mulled wine while socialising with homeowners. In addition, on Saturday 10th December between 11am and 3pm, guests who visit the Gilbert Place development will be treated to a special Christmas Fete, which will feature gift stalls, refreshments, carols and even a visit from Santa!
The McCarthy Stone team will also be on hand to give you a tour of the development, where you can visit the on-site facilities and communal areas, such as the bistro and communal lounge.
What’s more, all attendees throughout the week can take the opportunity to choose one of the baubles from the Christmas tree to win one of three special prizes – either a festive hamper, a bottle of wine or a Christmas pudding – and everyone is a winner!
Nicki Beswarick, Divisional Marketing Manager for McCarthy Stone Southern, commented: “Christmas is the season for bringing everyone together, which is why we’re proud to host our Christmas event for the community here at Gilbert Place. We can’t wait to welcome local retirees and their families to join us and raise a glass to celebrate the festive season.”
