Director of Football Barry Fry proudly opened Craegmoor Healthcare's new Alpine Lodge care service on Wednesday 1st July - a development of three apartments set in the beautiful grounds of the existing Conquest House Care Home that will provide luxury accommodation and tailor-made support for people with learning disabilities and associated mental health conditions.

Craegmoor Healthcare - the leading national provider of care and support services to people with learning disabilities, mental health illnesses and older people - invited local people to a tea party at Conquest House in aid of Marie Curie, with a variety of fun activities including a barbeque, raffle, bouncy castle and auction, raising more than £120 for the charity.

'Jackie Gilboy, Manager of Conquest House Care Home, said today: 'First of all, I want to say how grateful we are to Barry Fry, his wife and everyone at Peterborough United for their support and time. It was a really special day for everyone that attended and I hope that the facilities provided at Alpine Lodge will bring further joy and independence to the lives of the people who will live there.'

Fry said: 'It was a real honour to be able to open Alpine Lodge and take part in the tea party at Craegmoor's Conquest House. Everyone had a great time and I couldn't get over how hard all of the staff work and the commitment and compassion that they show every day.'
