A group of South Holland care homes is launching a Christmas Message Exchange for residents and the local community.
Country Court homes is encouraging people to send messages by card or video as residents face a COVID Christmas.
The video recordings can be songs, music or a festive message – and residents are planning on returning the good wishes.
At this time of year, care homes are usually filled with school children singing carols, visitors and festivities. But this year activity teams at the homes are planning special menus and resident choirs to spread some cheer.
“It has not been an easy year for older people. This Christmas will not be the same celebration that our residents usually enjoy, but staff are already going above and beyond to make the festive season as special as possible,” said Alykhan Kachra, co-chief executive of Country Court.
Homes in this area are Ashwood, 43 Spalding Common, Spalding PE11 3AU; Beech Lodge, Frogs Abbeygate, Holbeach PE12 8QJ; Fenchurch House, Spalding Common, PE11 3AS and St John’s, Hawthorn Bank, Spalding PE11 1JQ.
Recordings can be sent via WhatsApp to 07872 542369.
