Schools decorate Christmas cards for isolated older people in Lewes and Uckfield
The children made collectively 300 cards in total and these were decorated by the children with a message on the inside wishing a very merry Christmas. The cards were picked up by Owner and Director of the home care company, Alison Scutt.
.Alison said: “Although the festive season can bring joy and sparkle, it can also be challenging for older people who may be feeling lonelier than any other time of the year. We wanted a chance to put a smile on the faces of local people and to do something nice within the community.

This, and now two more community groups in Ringmer, are open to all to provide a space each week for people to connect. I know the joy a connection with the children can bring, so we thought this would be a great opportunity.”
All the cards were delivered this week and were very gratefully received.
