Thank you for joining us at The Wharf Christmas Open Day

We had a wonderful time welcoming visitors to The Wharf in Rochester for our Christmas Open Day. The festive atmosphere was made even more special with delicious mince pies, mulled wine, and the joyful performances from the Rochester Choir Society – thank you to the choir for filling our community with such beautiful holiday music.

It was a pleasure to show our stunning two-bedroom apartments and share the warmth and community spirit that make life at The Wharf so rewarding. The day wouldn’t have been the same without the residents, guests, and the choir who brought it all to life.

If you missed the event, we’d be delighted to welcome you for a personal tour and let you experience what makes life here so enjoyable.

Your generosity, laughter, and kindness helped us raise vital funds for Macmillan Cancer Support, and together we’ve made a real difference for those facing cancer.

From the delicious bakes to the wonderful conversations, it was truly a morning to remember.

We’re so grateful to our residents, friends, and team members who made the event such a success.
