FOOTBALL manager, Harry Redknapp, was the star guest at a Summer Garden party for retirement residents in Poole.

Mr Redknapp entertained guests with a talk and answered their burning questions on the highs and lows of his professional football career and his experience being crowned ‘King of the Jungle’ on I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! in 2018.

He said: “I really enjoyed the summer garden party, it was great to chat with the homeowners there and meet some Poole locals – I had a fantastic day!”

Guests at the event were also treated to a live performance of vintage classics from band Scarlet Swing, in the gardens.

Verity McKay, Divisional Marketing Manager at McCarthy Stone Southern, added: “It was a really fun event, and everyone was able to enjoy themselves, which was particularly important after the difficult 18 months we’ve all had. I’d like to thank say a huge thank you to Harry and Scarlet Swing for joining us and entertaining our guests.”
