The fortnightly card making workshop led by volunteers Lillian and Polly was recently put on hold due to COVID-19 precautions, but the pair have used their hobby to help stay connected.

“We just wanted the residents to know they weren’t forgotten – it was truly a labour of love,” said Polly.

Cottage Grove resident Margy Hornby appreciated the kind gesture and said they are such lovely handmade cards – ‘made by lovely ladies!’

“We thank them very much for making sure everyone here felt special and remembered,” said Margy.
