Penn Street Residents Celebrate Dignity Day

The Hackney Gazette recently featured residents and staff at Penn Street as they celebrated Dignity Action Day on 25 February 2011.

Residents and staff baked cakes together and had a teaparty to celebrate Dignity Action Day.  On 25 February 2011, Dignity Action Day gives everyone the opportunity to contribute to upholding people's rights to dignity and provide a truly memorable day for people receiving care.

After the teaparty residents wrote on balloons to express what dignity meant to them, then they released all the balloons into the Hackney sky.
