Hadleigh Nursing Home helps Hub project

Jan Seal, manager of Hadleigh Nursing Home, in Friars Road, Hadleigh, handed over more than 70 “wellbeing” bags to town mayor Helen Allan at the opening of the Hub project.

The High Street Hub will be a centre for volunteer support in the community during the pandemic.

The wellbeing bags, which will be distributed to elderly and vulnerable people locally contained gloves, face masks, hand sanitisers and a sweet treat.

Kingsley Healthcare regional operations director Georgina Johnston, who accompanied Mrs Seal at the launch, said: “As a company we have pledged to support both the hub and the local community with the provision of PPE and hand gel.

“Our chef at Hadleigh Nursing Home will also be making meals for distribution in the community.”
