A celebration brought members of the community together to mark the re-opening of the Ballroom in Horsforth has been held.
The event was officially opened by the Head of Customer Contact from Leeds City Council, and was hosted by Horsforth’s branch of Home Instead, Horsforth Community Hub and Dementia Friendly Horsforth.
There was a speech by journalist Andrew Edwards who won the Dementia Hero Award for Broadcast Journalism in 2021. There was singing from John Robert, music from the Local Ukulele Choir, dancing from Deco Dance, a ballroom dance demonstration from MHA Community Anything Goes, a raffle and plenty of food and drink.
The historic ballroom is based at Horsforth Community Hub and Library. Guests included some who had their wedding receptions in the hall 40 years ago.
