The February 8 event was organised by Thornhill resident Vicky Keenan, a retired occupational therapist who volunteers her time to Rand Aid.
“It was good to see how much everyone enjoyed playing the games.
“Some residents were saying they would not manage due to their limitations. However, with some encouragement, they participated and were so excited,” said Keenan.
She said everyone enjoyed the morning.
“It’s wonderful to build a relationship between Thornhill Manor and Thembalami and share ideas.
