"I didn’t think I would be able to dance but I loved it. It doesn’t matter if you don’t move at the right time, it's just about fun. I am quite new to the lunchclub but now its given me something to talk to others about"

"Some of the shifts look quite small, but are actually huge for the individuals. One resident is relatively new and doesn’t generally come to activities but because you connected with them by finding out what music they liked they wanted to come. They were enjoying their tracks and, even though they said they would not dance, were moving along too"
