RESIDENTS at a new retirement community in Salisbury joined together and enjoyed a buffet and a Frank Sinatra tribute for a harvest feast event.
The event took place at McCarthy Stone's Retirement Living Plus site Monument Place in Endless Street, Salisbury at its on-site bistro.
Nicki Beswarick, divisional marketing manager for McCarthy Stone Southern, said: “Our Harvest Feast was a great opportunity to welcome people from the community to enjoy a hearty, autumnal-inspired meal, and showcase the fantastic offering at Monument Place’s bistro restaurant, and the strong community that has formed there.

“We’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who joined us and made the day so special.”
Following the event McCarthy Stone donated £250 to Salisbury foodbank, which helps to combat poverty and hunger in the local area.
Maria Stevenson, manager at Sailsbury Foodbank, said: “We’re grateful for the donation from McCarthy Stone. In this cost-of-living crisis, for us to continue to provide our services, we rely on donations and volunteers, and this funding will go a long way in helping to alleviate hunger amongst those in need in the local community. We can’t thank the team enough.”
Monument Place has 63 apartments for the over 70s, alongside a range of shared facilities including a communal lounge, landscaped gardens and an on-site bistro.
