Resthome Visiting Party Brings Love to its Residents

In order to show support to the senior community members of Christchurch, the BLIA South Island, along with its Young Adult Division paid a visit to the residents of Harewood resthome on 13th September. Visitors included the BLIA President, Vice-president, North-one Sub-chapter President, committee members and YAD1 and YAD2 Presidents, totaling around thirty people.

As the seniors sat quietly in their seats anticipating the exciting performances brought to them by the visitors, the BLIA members began with a Xinjiang Uygur and Mongolian dance which was then followed by President Almeric Cheng leading his Tai-Chi class to give some demonstrations.

To round up the performances, the youth group members performed hand gestures with the songs: “Transform and Contribute” and “Droplets of Gratitude”. With their contagious excitement and energies, they received rounds of grand applause from the residents and staff members.

At the conclusion of the visit, a representative from the resthome expressed their thanks and gratitude to the BLIA and YAD members for organising the visit and providing such thoughtful and heartfelt performances as well as giving them everlasting joy and unforgettable memories.
