After Glasgow’s recent ill-fated Willy Wonka experience left a sour taste in many mouths, Urray House care home decided to sprinkle some magic of their own with a whimsical Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory fancy dress extravaganza, all for a golden cause.
Residents, staff and friends from the community gathered for an afternoon of whimsical wonder, dressed to impress as characters straight out of Roald Dahl's magical world.
The halls of the Parklands-owned care home came alive with a colourful array of characters, from Oompa Loompas to eccentric chocolatiers, all with the aim of raising money for the residents’ comfort fund.
Urray House manager Joe Greiner said: "Not only did we spread some Wonka magic, but we also raised funds for our residents' comfort fund and brought people from our community together. It was a truly scrumptious afternoon of pure imagination.”
