Residents from Hurstwood View care home in Uckfield visited Holy Trinity Church in High Hurstwood to admire arts and crafts displays created by local artisans. The displays featured floral arrangements in vivid autumnal colours and were designed for the community to enjoy.
After touring the exhibits, residents spent time in the church with coffee and cake whilst chatting with the care home team. Esther, general manager at Hurstwood View, said: 'Taking residents out of the home and into the community is a complete joy for everyone. These are powerful ways to boost mental health and improve their overall quality of life.'
