A care home in Halstead has thanked those who have gone the extra mile to support residents throughout the coronavirus pandemic, from the members of the community to its dedicated team members.

Care UK’s Colne View, on Dame Mary Walk, has expressed its gratitude for the consideration and generosity shown by the people of Halstead over the past couple of months.

From volunteering, to delivering messages and artwork to brighten everyone’s day, individuals and organisations have pulled together to support the older members of the community, and Care UK homes across the country have been overwhelmed by the kind gestures of local people.

Colne View was inundated with support, with residents receiving letters from local youngsters and handmade hearts from local potter, Shaun Hall.  In addition to a number of sweet treats dropped off by locals as a token of thanks, team members received custom headbands and laundry bags from Stitching in the Village and Braintree District Together.

Whether it’s baking for a resident’s birthday, keeping the morale up through creative activities or organising a beach party, team members at Colne View have also been praised for their unwavering dedication and relentless efforts over the past few months.

Razvan Stanbeca, home manager at Colne View, said: “We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported us over the past couple of months, whether that be through volunteering, sending tokens of appreciation, or writing letters to team members and residents. 

“Every single thought, message and gesture has helped to raise the spirits of our fantastic team and has brightened the days of residents missing their families. It really has kept everyone going.

“On behalf of everyone at Colne View, thank you so much.”
