The atmosphere crackles with anticipation every month at Thembalami Care Centre and Max Ordman Deaf Association’s birthday bash. Residents with birthdays that month are showered with attention, each receiving a thoughtful little gift. April’s celebration was held on the 17th and featured sponsored entertainment by Pastor Roy Edwards, who got the residents up and dancing. Delicious treats were served, adding to the festive air. “The birthday bashes are designed to make everyone feel cherished and remind them that birthdays, at any age, are a cause for celebration,” says Thembalami manager Esme van der Walt.
