Superstar Susan Boyle is praised after dropping into nursing home to meet fan

Blackburn superstar Susan Boyle has been praised for taking time out of her busy schedule to drop into a local nursing home to make one resident’s day.

Staff at Heatherfield Care Home had put out an appeal on Facebook to connect the Britain’s Got Talent star with a superfan resident David Gault.

And Subo was more than happy to come along to chat with David and even brought him her new CD.

The home revealed on Facebook: “We’ve been keeping a secret.

“As most of you will have seen, we put an appeal out on Facebook a few weeks ago hoping to connect one of our amazing gentlemen with his local idol Susan Boyle.

“Well we’ve only gone and done it! Less than a week later, Susan joined us in the Activity Hub for afternoon tea along with some of our residents and of course David himself.

"Not only did she spend time chatting to everyone over tea and cakes, she also kindly brought along some gifts for David including her latest CD and a photograph which she signed in front of him.

“We have never seen him so happy. He was positively star struck and we are beyond grateful for Susan and her team for setting the visit up.

“We strive to meet ALL of our residents individual needs. And at Heatherfield, we always go above and beyond to make them happy.

“Thank you Susan Boyle for making a local man, unbelievably happy. And thank you to each and every one of you who tagged, commented and shared our appeal until it reached Susan’s team.”
