A CONVOY of vintage military vehicles visited a care home when it marked Remembrance Day.

Oakdale care home in Kingsmill Road, Poole, saw members of staff don authentic military uniforms for the commemoration.

A Second World War Jeep was among the vehicles that featured during the event which began with a flag-raising ceremony and included a talk by a veteran.

The highlight of the day was the presentation of veterans' badges to deserving residents.

Each recipient was honoured with a personalised ceremony.

Residents also enjoyed a sing-a-long when a group of singers took to the stage to perform patriotic songs. 

Lesley Brock, manager of Oakdale care home, said: “Oakdale had not only honoured its veterans but had also created a lasting memory, a testament to the enduring spirit of those who had served their country.”
