RESIDENTS and colleagues at Millbrook Care Home in Stalybridge welcomed local MP Jonathan Reynolds for a visit during UK Parliament Week.
Mr Reynolds, MP for Stalybridge and Hyde, attended the home on Friday, November 28 where he met residents and staff to learn more about day-to-day life at the 46 bed service, which provides residential and residential dementia care.
He was shown facilities including the hair salon, nail bar, quiet room and a selection of ensuite bedrooms, while also speaking with residents about their experiences and views on local and national issues.
