Grace and Lily reside in a nursing home with little to do but witness a senile resident impersonating Elvis. Determined to break the tedium, Grace, with the help of Lily, kidnaps care assistant Pansy, for the ransom of gin, a packet of fags and a budgie, but things don't go according to plan!

Enrolled in Camp Confidence, Maria (terrified of birds), Blanche (agoraphobic), Donna (single mum on probation) and Cherry (an obsessive cleaner), are led by the skilled but harassed Julia and her uncertain assistant Fiona. The four learn a great deal about each other and themselves and emerge happier and more secure. This is their story.
