One of the bands taking part in The Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo visited residents at the Erskine Edinburgh home to play some uplifting music for them.
Members of the 1st Battalion Irish Guards visited during the gruelling run of performances which take place on the Castle Esplanade each night.
Erskine Chief Executive Ian Cumming said: “We are delighted to once again welcome performers from the Royal Edinburgh Tattoo. Our residents look forward to their visit every year. Not all our residents can make it along to the main show in Edinburgh and this visit ensures that no one who wishes to see the Tattoo is left out. As always, the performance was spectacular and left everyone with a smile on their face.”
