RESIDENTS at HC-One’s Aston House care home in Angel Lane, Hayes End, this year received a parcel of personalised Christmas cards from people across the country.

The Wonderful Xmas Post is a project involving volunteers, youth clubs, schools and workplaces, to create hand-crafted cards for people in care homes.

Residents were able to open a personally-addressed envelope containing a card with a hand-written festive message.

Seema Jose, manager of the HC home, said: “Signing up to this project has been a fantastic way to get everyone into the festive spirit.”
