JANE FRANCIS
Melodies & Memories
An experienced and versatile entertainer, ideal for your home
Based in Manchester, but happy to travel further afield at a small additional cost, Jane is a highly-experienced care home entertainer. She is a natural at 'reading' a room and in effortlessly engaging with residents. Jane offers a wide choice of themed shows.
​
Jane is not solely a care home entertainer, as can be seen here, but she brings all that stagecraft and versatility to your home. She arrives with a state-of-the-art PA system - and with her sound man working quietly in the corner, this allows her to concentrate purely on performing - and gives you and the audience a full show, and the best value for money possible. You will find cheaper, but you won't find better!
​
Jane's concessionary prices for the care home sector start from £75-£85 (variable, depending on the distance travelled within a 30-mile radius) for a 60-minute performance. Previous clients include: Anchor, Bupa, Sunrise, Advinia, HC-One, Avery Healthcare, Salvation Army, MMCG, and many more. She has full public liability insurance and all her equipment is PATS-tested.
And now for a word from Jane herself...
Hello, Activity Co-ordinator...
I've been entertaining for many years - and enjoy singing my songs and entertaining residents of all ages. It’s always a pleasure to be able to sing songs that bring back memories, and I can’t tell you how rewarding it is to see how a song resonates and stirs the emotions of days gone by. Although I can sing the 1940s if requested, and songs like 'Tipperary' and 'Daisy Daisy' really do strike a chord, I find that nowadays the songs of the 1960s are the ones that really hit the right note, and get residents moving and singing along. Taking my lead from the home, I like to engage with the residents who I feel want to. Just referring to someone by name can bring a smile - and although I might tell the odd joke, I really do let the songs do the talking. I very much look forward to visiting your home, and meeting your residents. Love, Jane x
