Staff and residents of Syne Hills Residential Home came together to remember Deborah Jackman and raise funds for the Breast Cancer Research Trust
Care home coordinator Cheryl Curtis said: “This event hit all our hearts as we remembered Deborah Jackman – a dear friend, work colleague and member of staff who, unfortunately, lost her battle to breast cancer one year ago.
"This news devastated us all and even while she battled with cancer we stood by her side and showed our support for the Breast Cancer Research Trust.
"This year, as usual, we wanted to not just celebrate her life but to carry on raising funds to this great research in her name.
"Both staff and residents all wore pink, made cakes and took part in raffles and tombolas.
"Staff came in on their days off to participate and others spent their time at home baking cakes for the event in their own time.
"Without all of this we would not have been able to pull off this day.
"Even a storm couldn’t stop families and friends coming to support us.
"Thankfully, we were able to raise over £200 for this great cause in the name of Deborah Jackman.”
