Local retirees gave a warm welcome to TV personality, David Harper who joined them to celebrate the official opening of a new Retirement Living development on Ashton Road West, Failsworth.

David, who has previously appeared on Bargain Hunt and Antiques Road Trip, led the celebrations at McCarthy Stone’s Sydney Grange, where the BBC antiques expert performed a ceremonial ribbon-cutting before sharing details of his illustrious career.

Guests at the event spent time getting to know David over a glass of fizz, before taking a guided tour of the superb facilities within the community. 

Commenting on his visit, David Harper said: “I was delighted to be invited to Sydney Grange for the Grand Opening. It was so wonderful to meet with all the new homeowners and their guests and an absolute joy to be a part of the celebrations here in Failsworth.”

On behalf of the team and our homeowners, we’d like to say a huge thank you to him for making it such a memorable experience.

“Sydney Grange provides a unique brand of retirement living in the local area with independence and community at its heart. With a wealth of social activity on offer and a friendly management team on-hand, homeowners and their families can enjoy peace of mind that everything is taken care of.”

“Our low-maintenance, energy-efficient apartments allow homeowners to enjoy their independence, with the added benefit of communal areas for socialising with neighbours. As a result, our developments soon become a thriving community, which is why we encourage anyone interested to join us for our Grand Opening to experience first-hand the vibrant lifestyle we offer.”
