Bells enrich a long life

 

Mrs Dorothy Harvey started the Bells Entertainers 25 years ago, with her piano playing, along with Joy Coleman and one other.

Dorothy says her life was enriched by the experience with the Bells.

She turned 100 on September 16 when she saw many of her friends including her long-time Bells friend Joy Coleman.

The Bells are a group of senior people who give up their time and talents to provide entertainment to others.

They do not charge for their concerts.

If a donation is given, it is given back to the centre or the nursing home where they are performing.

To be a member of the Bells was a commitment which required loyalty to the team, Mrs Coleman said.

"There are no stars in the Bells.

"Everyone is equal to one another."
